Brief Answer:
Acute gastroenteritis/intestinal candidasis to confirm...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concern.

Your symptoms are indicative for possible acute gastroenteritis due to a viral infection.

As I was reviewing your other discussion, I noted that you have been using antibiotics recently. They might have altered your intestinal flora clinically presenting with the symptoms you are having.

I advise to:
- take probiotics to optimize intestinal flora
- take simethicone to relieve gas
- avoid foods that might cause gas
- take antacids after meal

You might need to take oral anti-fungal treatment like nystatin drops in case of intestinal candida.

Hope it was of help!

Hi and thanks for your time . I took antibiotics 3weeks ago amoxicillin for dental procedure.
The only thing I'm taking now is omeprazole once a day . I've notice that I have a lot of air in my intestines because I can feel the air moving in the colon . Can I use omeprazole and the medicine you suggested together ? Thanks in advance :)

Brief Answer:
Yes , you can use them together

Detailed Answer:
Hi back

Yes,you can use omeprazole together with medications I mentioned above like probiotics and simethicone.

Since you have used antibiotics I strongly suggest to do fecal candida exam to evaluate intestinal candida.

Wishing you all the best
