For quick relief from high acidity, you can try over-the-counter antacids containing calcium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide. For longer-lasting relief, generic H2 blockers like famotidine, or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like omeprazole, are highly effective when taken before meals. To help manage symptoms, try avoiding spicy or greasy foods, eating smaller meals, and remaining upright for at least two hours after eating. If your symptoms are severe, frequent, or do not improve after a few days, please consult a doctor for a personalized evaluation.
