Brief Answer:
Take tablet rabeprazole

Detailed Answer:
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am Dr.Amit Jain (DM, Gastroenterologist).

For burning sensation, bloating and gas I will advise you:
1. Since problem is not being solved with tablet topcid, I will suggest you to take a proton pump inhibitor like rabeprazole 40mg od before breakfast, which is more potent than tablet topcid
2. Observe whether dairy products worsen this symptom then avoid dairy products
3. Don't take carbonated drinks
4.Avoid cabbage, beans, pulses
5. Take capsule of simethicone and tab gasex by Himalaya may be twice a day. Both I found very useful in my patients with bloating symptoms

loose stool and abdominal pain may be due to recent GI infection for which I will suggest you to take tablet rifaximin 400mg twice a day for 14 days. It is a mild antibiotic that acts only in GIT.


I hope I have answered your query. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Wish you a good health
