Answer:
To help relieve heartburn, a person should take medicine that is 'Over-the-counter (OTC) antacids and acid blockers'.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Heartburn is a very common symptom of a condition called Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
- This affects the lower part of the esophageal sphincter and also the muscle ring-like connection between the 'esophagus and stomach' which tends to infuse a backward flow of the stomach secretions.
- Along with some dietary and life style changes, the intake of antacids and acid blockers can help in the relieve of the symptoms of occasional heartburn.
