Does anyone know where I can get fruit flavoured antacids?
I'm battling with indigestion and heartburn but anything mint or lemon flavoured makes me ill 
I've tried the aniseed flavoured gaviscon and its also nasty. I was hoping to find fruit flavoured tums somewhere but no luck so far. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Quick-eze also has berry flavoured chewable antacids. I like the chewy ones soooo much better than the chalky ones.

Shoot, I tried 3 pharmacies today and none had fruit flavoured Mylanta rolls or tums.
I got some berry quick-ease which are perfectly fine to eat but dont seem to help much. I've finished a roll today 
Please let me know if anyone sees the fruit flavoured Mylanta or fruit-flavoured Tums anywhere in Auckland!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hiya date-buddy - have you talked to your MW about getting a prescription for something a bit more effective? I have had really bad indigestion/heartburn/reflux, and mine has prescribed ranitidine which is just magic. I think there are other things you can get on script too, which seem to work better than gaviscon, etc and are quite safe to take while pregnant. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
