Talking to your pharmacist may help. Call and ask for a consultation appointment. Tell them you take multiple meds and would like a review.
Gather your meds and take them with you.
(Walgreen's has a private room for this and there is no charge) Tell your pharmacist what is happening, how often, and when. See what they say. They would know if this is common or unusual and will guide you accordingly.
You could be taking them incorrectly- some may require there be food in your stomach prior to the dose, for example.
You may be eating something that interacts badly (like potassium, or grapefruit) or you may need to take the meds at different intervals.
There could be a number of things- and it is worth trying to remedy, if that is possible.
Have you mentioned this to your Doctor?

Excellent advice.
I persoanlly would try "Brioshi". It taste great and hopefully relieve you, of sour stomach.
