2 or 3 issues.
Firstly were you advised that Dianette has double the VTE (clot) risk of most other pills. Approximately 50/100,000 women / year.
Secondly taking antibiotics with the pill reduces the contraceptive cover.
Finally you did not name the antibiotic but tetracylines ( which end with the letters -cyline) cause heartburn on their own.

The heartburn is a side effect of the antibiotic. Please try to drink the antibiotics after a meal or with a full stomach. Drink lots of water. If the heartburn still persist go back to your doctor for a change of antibiotics.
