Just had a total knee replacement. Am taking generic oxycodone. Am experiencing severe heartburn. Have been taking ondansetron hcl for stomach upset. I had a bleeding ulcer from taking ketoprophen too long. I have not been on aspirin or any ibeprophen since. This severe heartburn caused me to take Pepcid AC just now. What else can I do?
