Hello, I Took High Doses Of Antibiotics To Treat Pneumonia

default
Posted on Tue, 20 Oct 2020
Question: Hello, I took high doses of antibiotics to treat pneumonia, which killed the beneficial bacteria in the intestine and after that I felt severe pain on the right side so I made an x-ray and stool analysis. The result of analysis was that I have Gastroduodenitis, Colitis, Dolichosigma. Based on the analysis, I was given these medications (lacto-g, bifidumbacterium, entenorm, creon 10000). I took Creon 10000 and Entenorm for a month and finished the dose last week. Currently, I still feel severe pain from time to time, especially after eating, and I feel bloating in addition to gases. So, what should I do, I will be grateful If you can help me? Can you tell me what is happening and why I still feel pain? Attached the medical tests (Tests are in Russian and I attached the English translation).

Brief Answer:
Please go through detailed answer dear.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for choosing "Ask a Doctor" service for your query,
Have seen your details and the reports attached.
The pain you are having right now is because of Gastroduodenitis which means severe inflammation of mucosa lining of stomach and duodenem.
None of the medicine you were taking was covering this and therefore severe pain is still there.
I would suggest you to take-
Rabeprazole 20 mg two times a day.
Domperidom 30 mg once a day for 10 days.
Activated charcoal tablets 3-4times daily.
Eat light and easily digestible food consisting mainly of complex carbohydrates like wheat oats etc.
Avoid Non veg and dairies for a while.
Follow up after 10 days.
Hope i was helpful.
Thanks!

Thank you very much doctor. I can't find Rabeprazole in my city so what should I take instead of it? Is Domperidom and domperdone are the same? Doctor what about colitis do I have to take anything to treat it or these medications are enough? Because I took a lot of antibiotics before I am afraid of taking new medications, so these medications don't have side effects, right? Thank you very much I hope everything is going well.

Also, VSL#3 and econorm don't come to my country (Kyrgyzstan) so which probiotics can I take and for how many days?

Thank you very much.
