Hi and welcome to HCM.
Yey you can give her that but also she may need antiacid medications such as ranitidin or Nexium. Also, you need ot avoid smoking, alcohol, coffee, and fried food and include probiotics in diet. If there is no improvement you should do gastroscopy to rule out possible ulcer or tumor which may hide in stomach and cause Acid pain. Wish you good health. Regards
