Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Yes Becelac PB could be taken for acidity problem instead of Biolis. It contains Lactobacillus 50 Million Spores, which are good microbes (probiotics) that help to make lost gut flora & also prevents other harmful bacteria to grow. It has also no interaction with any of medicines you aretaking.
You should also avoid spicy & fried foods. Eat healthy foods like green leafy vegetables, whole garins, fruits like papaya, banana etc. Too much of citrus fruits are also avoidable.

If problem persist visit a gastroenterologist

Hope this information helps
