Xiao Kui Posted January 19, 2007 at 09:14 AM Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 at 09:14 AM Was wondering if they sell TUMS, Mylanta, or some other tasty chewable equivalent (can even be a Chinese brand) for antacid/heartburn in Chinese pharmacies? If so, what's it called in Chinese? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onebir Posted January 19, 2007 at 07:37 PM Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 at 07:37 PM I think I saw things like that in Watsons.

nitropuppy Posted January 25, 2007 at 07:02 AM Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 at 07:02 AM Just a helpful hint. If you have trouble with heartburn or an acid stomach, the papaya is a natural anti-acid. Even those dried papaya pieces can ease your pain. If the problem persists, your entire body is probably too acidic. Get away from tomatoe sauces and cola's. Bump up your intake of calcium. Of course, I'm not a Doctor and I don't play one on TV.
