indigestion
"Looking for a product to cut off GERD at early stage, I purchased Phillips Milk of Magnesia 12 oz. bottle that came with a measuring cap.  The laxative dose is 2 to 4 Tbsp so I wanted somewhat less than 2 Tbsp for GERD.  I assumed that the measuring cap was for medicinal Tbsps as distinguished from kitchenware Tbsps. Only after taking a bit less than 2 capfuls, upon rinsing the cap, did I notice that the cap is faintly marked for 4 Tbsps.  I got more than the max recommended laxative dose!  The good news is that it takes care of GERD.  The other news is that it takes care of everything else starting a few hours later and continuing over an extended period of time.   I was pleased with the GERD result but need to find a lower dose."
