Why did my PCP change dicyclomine supply length?

35 year old female. Was prescribed dicyclomine in january at a 22 day supply. Sent in the last refill request of it, and noticed yesterday my pcp changed it to 45 day supply. Why

Answered on 10th Sept '24

Dicyclomine is often used to relieve stomach cramps and intestinal issues like irritable bowel syndrome. With a longer supply, you won’t need to worry about running out of your medication too soon. This should help you manage your symptoms better and ensure a steady supply. If you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact your gastroenterologist.

I am facing constipation problem from last 2 days I have not done with my stool and my food intake from last 2 days is very low and sometimes I'm getting fever sometimes I am shivering and sometimes my blood pressure became high and sometimes my sugar level goes down I am feeling weakness and whenever I am eating I am facing nausea

Female | 60

I would urge you to make an appointment with a gastroenterologist as early as possible. Constipation, being a symptom involving both food habits and fever, is seen in psychotic disorders, and its monitoring is needed. There is a possibility that the vomiting and weakness you are experiencing are a result of constipation or another medical issue that you have.

I am 20 years old. Recently I feel pain in my esophageal area during swallowing time. Also after every minute it start paying from bottom to up an then stop and continue after se ome time

Male | 20

There are symptoms that hard burn is the same as that you might be facing. The reason is that stomach acid goes up into the esophagus and causes pain. Eating spicy or greasy foods, alcohol, or being overweight plays a significant role in developing this heartburn type of problem. For improvement, you can eat smaller meals, avoid trigger foods, and stay sitting upright after eating. If it still hurts, visiting a gastroenterologist for a check-up is necessary.

I have a fatty liver. Level 2 sgpt. I want treatment

Male | 37

I would urge you to consult with a gastroenterologist and liver specialist to receive treatment for your fatty liver. A level 2 SGPT shows that your liver is damaged to a moderate extent and needs prompt medical intervention. Besides medical care, you need to make some lifestyle changes, such as consuming less alcohol, losing weight, and sticking to a balanced diet.

Male | 30

You could have piles which are also referred to as hemorrhoids. The following indications could be the symptoms of piles if you see blood in your stool, feel pain or discomfort around your bottom, or notice swollen lumps. Piles occur when blood vessels in the area become swollen and inflamed. Eating fiber-rich foods, drinking water, and avoiding straining are some methods that can help alleviate the symptoms.

What food is best is ice cream, tea cakes, fibre flakes ok if I have chronic ibs

Male | 42

If you are suffering from chronic IBS, the best diet to go for would be easy foods on your tummy. Ice cream, tea cakes, and fiber flakes may be questionable choices. Ice cream might be the cause of your stomachache, and tea cakes are too sweet. On the other hand, fiber flakes could be a high-fiber one, which can trigger IBS symptoms such as bloating and cramps and therefore be a reason for the worsening of the condition. You should make it a point to eat unseasoned foods like rice, cooked vegetables, and lean proteins to assist in calming your stomach.

Need better meds for stomach cramps and bloating also intestine churning

Male | 42

Stomach cramps, bloating, and the feeling of your intestines churning can be caused by several things, such as eating too quickly, too much fatty foods, or stress. To help with this, you can try taking antacids or gas relief tablets which are available over-the-counter. Drinking some peppermint or ginger tea may also be beneficial for you. Avoiding the consumption of carbonated drinks and the habit of chewing gum can help.
