For heart burn, you can try an oral antacid medication like Tums (calcium carbonate) or Maalox. You can pick it up at your local pharmacy. If that doesn't work, you can also try histamine-blockers likes Famotidine or Ranitidine (you can also buy these over-the-counter). If that STILL doesn't work, your lasts line of defense against heartburn are the proton-pump-inhibitors like Omeprazole (which you can also buy over-the-counter in the US, but it starts getting more expensive).
