Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.Ratnakar Kini and I am pleased to answer your query.

Pudin XXXXXXX is an ayurvedic preparation made of mint oils. It is found to be effective in indigestion.
Some of the side effects include heartburn, mouth sores, head ache and diarrhea.
It is also known to interact with certain medications.
Other than these it is very safe.

I hope that answers your question.

Thanks, Dr Kini. I have a few other questions. I was diagnosed with IBS about 9 years ago, & also underwent an endoscopy at Manipal Hospital, Bangalore in 2003. The results were negative.
The only discomfort I face today, is that I have to evacuate my bowels 3 times in the morning everyday. With 1 Pudin XXXXXXX a day, I am quite comfortable, & no side effects. I also tried other drugs like Yakult & Esabgol, but they are not so effective.
Can I continue with Pudin XXXXXXX or do you have any better suggestion?

Hi,
If you find good relief with Pudin XXXXXXX you can continue taking that.
Alternatives include T.Ibset once a day and probiotic supplements.

I hope that answers your question.
