Countless nights of tossing and turning enduring the pain that heartburn causes, can convince you to seek relief. Today’s market for heartburn and acid reflux relief products is vast. Many popular name brand products are on the shelf as well as those that require a prescription. As long as many can remember the popular antacid product Mylanta graced our medicine cabinets. This product is a must have for many suffers, who continue to keep this product on hand. But is there a cheaper alternative? Kroger grocery store offers an alternative to Mylanta but does it even come close to the long time favorite Mylanta? This review will help you decide if Kroger Antacid product is for you.

As a frequent heartburn and acid reflux suffer, I decided to give this product a try. After suffering with a bad night of heartburn, I went to the medicine cabinet and grabbed my bottle of Kroger antacid. I took the maximum dosage of four teaspoons; the medication had a pleasant taste. I drank a tall glass of water to help wash down the medication. After about fifteen minutes I started to feel relief so I went to go lay back down in bed. After about thirty minutes past I felt more pain and bloating so I got up to take some more. This time I only took one teaspoon full and chased it with a glass of water. I was able to go a sleep without suffering from continued heartburn.
This product is fast acting, tasty and does the job as well as Mylanta. I will continue to use this product to battle my heartburn woes. Before using Kroger brand antacid ask your doctor if you are taking a prescription drug, have kidney disease or if you are on a magnesium restricted diet.
