I visited this web two years ago in search for remedies for excessive burping and I read that gripe water works. I tried and it relieved my symptoms immediately, so thank you very much Rebecca (2007 post) for sharing your experience.I have suffered for 5 years before using gripe water, I talked to my family doctor, who recommended antacids. I tried all kinds of them with simethicone or without it but none worked.
Another thing that worked for me were probiotics, but they do not work immediately.
In fact the cause of excess burping in my case was caffeine. I used to drink 3-4 cups a day, medium or large size. After I reduced the amount of coffee to two small cups a day, one in the morning one in the midday I have no problems any more, burping is gone.
Now I have handy gripe water, probiotics which I take once a day and less coffee.
Hopefully this might help somebody out there having the burping problem.
Cheers
Neshat

I had been burping every other minute for the past two days and it was driving me crazy (not to mention how embarrassing is) and then I read Rebecca's post from 2007... Had to go to three different drug stores but I found gripe water, took two tablespoons as indicated on the box and have not burned since... This is miracle water!!

For some unknown reason just in the last week I have had chronic burping and I have tried everything to get rid of it, the only thing that eliminated it quickly was believe it or not gripe water for babies, it was the alcohol free gripe water, thank God its gone! I hope this helps anyone else out there suffering from this.
