Cecile I did the very first day that I went for my treatment. Everybody was offering me peppermints for that reason.. I never was fond of peppermint. I used to get heartburn that we woke up from a dead sleep. I started chewing peppermint gum, and that was like instant relief.. and then when I saw my oncologist, she told me to get antacids that had calcium in them. I did that as well both worked very efficiently. I hope this helps.

No, but they added famotdatine to my drugs. I don't take it anymore. I forgot the brand name for it.
