Can You Please Suggest Remedy For Indigestion Problem
Question: I have been to a travel trip recently and I felt little indigestion problem(passing too much of gases) during my travel. It controlled after taking omeze for three days and I have also taken one econorm . But after a week , when I had some pickles at home , again I am facing same problem (passing too much of gas) . Everyday starting from evening and after having dinner I am feeling gastric trouble as mentioned above. Can you please suggest some remedy.
Brief Answer:
It needs testing now
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Thanks for reverting back on Ask A Doctor service.
Most probably you had been drinking unclean water during travel. Relief with Econorm suggests alteration of normal flora. It may get better with Gasex tablet.
Since it is happening again and again, I would suggest tests for it.
One is Widal test for typhoid.
Second is Stool test- routine, ova, parasites, amoeba, culture and sensitivity.
Next management will depend on the test report.

Hello Madam,
Is it because of the antibiotics I have taken. Can I use Gasex for something and see if it gets better and then go for tests if required.
Thanks XXXXXXX

Can you also please suggest dosage for gasex tablet.
Brief Answer:
Yes you can try gasex for sometime
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Yes you can try Gasex for sometime before going for tests. I usually suggest just one dose and its effective for most. And then take another dose when symptoms are back. Usually symptoms are cured in one dose only and next dose is required after 6 months or longer.
Otherwise its dose regime is one tablet two times a day.
