I took dyoxicycline for almost 8 days becuase I had to spot it due to a terrible heartburn, I called my doctor and he said that it will go away on its own, but it even hurts me when I drink water. I am taking omeprazol OTC 20mg once a day. Is that ok?
Hello, Omeprazole is antacid, and it is the Chat Doctor.  Instead of taking it once a day, you should take it twice daily on an empty stomach. Along with omeprazole, you should also follow these lifestyle modifications for better symptomatic relief in heartburn. 1. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food.2. Avoid large meals instead of taking frequent small meals.3. Go for walking after meals.4. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in bed.5. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits.6. Avoid stress and tension be relaxed and calm.Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
