Question

I'm wondering if it's safe to take Normaxin RT for acid reflux after I've had papaya or other fruits in the morning. Here's what I did today: I had giloy juice, then Chyawanprash, then papaya, and finally took Normaxin RT, all with about a half-hour gap in between. Is this okay to do? Would love some guidance.
