What Is The Treatment Severe Acid Stomach Pain When On Medication For Atrial Fibrillation?

I have severe acid stomach pain. My doctor has given me two new medications along with what I was already taking. I suffer from episodes of atrial fibrillation so am on warfarin and metoprolol. This week my Dr. has prescribed pantoprazole and when that wasn't keeping the pain down, she added sucralfate. I am still very uncomfortable. I was taking Gaviscon but now I am concerned about interactions with the other meds. Is there anything I can take to soothe the pain?

Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
It appears that the gastric pain may be due to the ischemia of the heart.
I advise you to consult your cardiologist for diagnosis and treatment.You may need to reshedule the dosage of the cardiac drugs. If there is no such finding it is well and good.
Take only bland foods, avoid spices, junk foods, and oily foods. As well you can continue thepentaprazole, and sucralfate.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
