Dr. XXXXXXX Reviewed My Last Few Questions. I Wanted To

Can change the antibiotic to alternative one.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir
Thank you for asking again.
I have gone through your query. Nausea and diarrhoea can be due to antibiotic (Amoxiclav) induced gastritis. Taking Proton pump inhibitors like Esomeprazole (Nexium) and domperidone will be helpful to control it. Instead of this antibiotic you can take alternatives like Azithromycin which won't make such gastric irritation.
Your blood works didn't shown any thing wrong with pancreas or Gall bladder. There were no relevant tests for this on the reports. Doing an ultrasound examination of abdomen will be helpful to rule out anything wrong with Gall bladder or pancreas. That is needed only if your symptoms are not improving.
Blood test for amylase can be done to rule out anything wrong with pancreas also.
Thanks.



EKG (electrocardiogram) should be taken.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome again.
Thank you for your follow-up query.
As he is having chest pain EKG should be taken to rule out cardiac problems. Proton pump inhibitors like Esomeprazole (Nexium) and anti emetic like domperidone or Ondansetron will be helpful to control the discomfort and nausea.
If severe nausea is there then injections of proton pump inhibitors like Pantoperazole and ondansetron will be needed. Antibiotics I will prefer intravenous in such case.
Amoxiclav orally will worsen gastritis. Amoxiclav can be given as intravenous.
Hospitalization is better in such case.
Thanks.
