Heartburn on Wegovy

I'm taking Wegovy, and since I went up to .5 last week I've had horrible heartburn.

Very little in the way of suppression, but I'm aware that my digestion has slowed massively. I'm taking Laxido to keep things going, but it isn't working as well as it did when I had constipation from another medication.

I don't know if the Heartburn is a direct effect of Wegovy or a result of the slower transit.
Any ideas on how to overcome it? I'm eating less than usual, not because of any suppression but because I plan every meal and any snacks, and I won't deviate from my plan.

Unfortunately I have suffered badly on Wegovy (1 then 1.7) for last few months and just had to make the very difficult decision to go back on Mounjaro- I switched because of cost, but have lost nothing on Wegovy whereas was losing at least 1-2lb a week on MJ but worse, the indigestion, nausea, reflux on Wegovy has just affected me too much with no results to show. It may be different for others but I have literally wasted £400 😫I was careful what I ate, took peppermint oil and so on but it was brutal especially reflux in the night
