Suggest Treatment For Acid Reflux And Constipation
I have been sick for about a week now. Went to the doctor and am on atibioctic for sininitis and pill for acid reflux. Also have been having constipation. The doctor had me take mirlax for that. I am having a little loose stool but stomach hurts and feel that I need to have a bowel movement.
There is no need to worry, acid reflux can cause esophagus cancer is not the only cause of esophagus cancer. It modern literature it can be ONE? But it is not proved till.
Yes, lensiprozale (Prevacid) is one of the good medication for the reflux esophagitis.
Get a H. Pylori test done. It is major cause of gastric ulcer and reflux esophagitis
You need to take other proton pump inhibitor like pantoprazole with domperidone but keep in mind take it early morning empty stomach and don't eat for half an hour after taking it.
Avoid spicy, oily, junk food, late nights food, alcohol, smoking,... Raise your head side of bed about 4 inches. Do mild. Exercise but not immediately after taking food.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
