What Are The Medications For Sore Throat, Ear Pain And Belching After Diagnosed With GERD?

I have been diagnosed with GERD. I have a doctors appointment soon, but in the meantime, I have several symptoms. I have a sore throat, ear ache, excessive belching and a headache. What over the counter preparation could I take to help with the symptoms until I see my doctor? Thank you.
