He also gave her ranitidine. he said her white count was good no infection. What is he doing, he mentioned divertilius sorry for the spelling. I think I need to take elsewhere.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You are very right ,SMS can cause stomach problem and should be avoided if possible. These are for pain and inflammation, if she has no pain or fever you can stop it. even if she has any pain or fever. You better use paracetamol for it that is much stomach friendly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
