Hi, it appears that you have I.B.S. the present condition is the dysentry, due to some infection in the g.i. tract.
The treatment it self and the disease will leave its side effects in the intestine and cause belching etc. Black stool may be due to the infection it self. Dont worry you will be fine after few days. Thank you.

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. In my opinion the dipep capsules may cause blackish stools but as you are having other symptoms like belching and gas you need to get ruled out from other causes of blackish stools one one them is upper gastrointerstinal bleeding. I suggest endoscopy for this. Hope this answers your query. Thank you.
