I am having a burning sensation on both sides of upper abdomen where the rib cage ends. Rabeprazole is not giving much relief. It started after I took about 50 tablets of iron tablets. Please advise.

Iron tablets cause stomach irritation. Avoid spicy food, carbonated beverages. Take plenty of fluids. Smoking, alcohol intake also worsen acidity.
