HI
Welcome to HCM
Yes there are side effects of long term Combiflam use . Apart from gastritis the most feared side effect is Kidney failure .
First of all you have to let him know about these side effects . If possible take him to a doctor and let the doctor speak . If not possible show him my reply .
Ask him to do aerobic exercise daily , let him do it in mild intensity but daily . If any pain occurs let him take some pain relief gel or spray instead of tablets .
Hope I have answered your query . Any further query kindly revert back ---Dr.Divakara.P
