Can Ibuprofen and Pepto be Taken Together?

Can u take ibuprofen and pepto together

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 23rd May '24

No you can't as both of these drugs belongs to different chemical classes and they might cause damages to the stomach lining that can lead to gastrointestinal bleeding. It would be preferable to consider a gastroenterologist to have a more in-depth knowledge concerning your condition and to establish an accurate diagnosis.

i am a 19 year old female currently about to be 36 weeks pregnant and for the past week ive had horrible diarrhea i did have fevers but they stopped two days ago now only the diarrhea remains and its only gotten worse it seems. ive been to urget care and my obgyn but they haven’t given me the answers im looking for, waiting on some test to come back. my question is my diarrhea has been bright yellow and its been every other hour. since my fever went down ive started getting pain in my stomach everytime i get up and move mainly due to needing to go to the bathroom ( baby is completely fine says the doctors and i do feel her moving the same as before) when i go to use the bathroom its like i cannot get it out only little bits of the diarrhea and now today it is black. so far its like every ten or so minutes my stomach starts hurting and i need to go back but its so swollen and has started to bleed a little bit from so much diarrhea that it really hurts but yet barley any comes out should i try a stool softener?

Female | 19

Bright yellow diarrhea may indicate bile in your stool, while black diarrhea can suggest stomach bleeding. These symptoms could be due to infections or other medical issues that need attention. In my opinion, using a stool softener may not be ideal at this time. It's important to continue following your doctor's advice closely.

I m 21 week pregnant. My SGPT AND SGOT is 394 and 327. Already taking liver medicine prescribe by doctor. Why it is happening. Is it normal??

Female | 30

Elevated serum GOT (394) and GPT (327) levels in pregnancy are not widespread. These levers might be indicators of liver damage, which could be caused by some liver conditions or infections like Isaak's disease. Fortunately, you are already taking medication. Stick to your doctor's recommendations. Don't forget to have a healthy lifestyle that includes good food, proper hydration, and sufficient sleep. The monthly checkups can tell whether the problem is under control.

I am 24 years female with anal fissure on and off for 1 month. I am on laxative, but when I stop the laxative my stools becomes hard and again tearing the anal region causing pain while pooping. After a treatment the pain becomes better. Is there any fiber supplement which will softens the stool and helps my fissure to heal

Female | 24

What is probably happening is you have an anal fissure, which is a small split in the skin around the anus. The pain that occurs during bowel movements is the main symptom. Hard stools can make it worse. Fiber supplements like psyllium husk or methylcellulose may help you ease your bowel movements which are the reason for the hard stools. Also drinking plenty of water is very good for your digestion.

My stomach is having gas bubble

Male | 48

Okay you can try a few remedies to find relief. Drink warm liquids like herbal teas or warm water with lemon to relax the stomach muscles. Avoid carbonated drinks and chewing gum as they can contribute to gas production.

Hi. I ate leftover food from last night for lunch. It was in the microwave last night and morning time I put it in the refrigerator. It didn't smell bad when I smelled it and it didn't make me sick when I ate it. But I was worried to much if I made a mistake eating it. So I forced myself to throw it out. Please advise ????

Female | 22

Consuming food that has been out of reach for a certain amount of time might result in food intoxication. The symptoms of food poisoning may include aches, discomfort, cramps, nausea, and vomiting. If there is no evidence of these symptoms after you eat the food, it's likely that your body didn’t react.

The patient was complaining of upper stomach discomfort, bloating and excessive gas. they decided to self-medicate with paracetamol and Metrogyl pills for one day. the patient went to the hospital 36 hours later. the doctors did tests, a total blood count, stool and urine test which all turned out negative. The physician said it might be indigestion. prescribed omeprazole, relcer gel and levofloxacin. its been 48 hours and the patient still has no relief from their symptoms. please advise

Female | 31

If the patient has not experienced relief from their symptoms after 48 hours of following the prescribed medications, it would be advisable for them to contact their physician for further evaluation. . In the meantime the patient can try avoiding trigger foods, eat smaller meals, stay hydrated, and manage stress.

It's important to see a gastroenterologist for your stomach ache, especially since it occurs after eating or drinking and hasn't improved with metronidazole. They can diagnose the cause and suggest the best treatment for your condition.

Can you help me I keep waking up in the middle of the night and feeling nauseous.

Female | 12

you should see an endocrinologist to exclude underlying GI conditions which may be the source of your symptoms. Midnight nausea may indicate acid reflux or other gastrointestinal disorders.

I'm feeling like my chest is too heavy from yesterday night and abdominal pain and too much headache from 5 days and I'm not getting sleep at night & legs pain and feeling irritating,,,, wanted to be alone and I'm not hungry at all from 1 week

Female | 17

Dealing with chest pressure, abdominal pain, headaches, sleep troubles, and leg pain can be tough, especially when feeling irritable. The cause might be stress, a poor diet, or lack of sleep. Listen to your body—stay hydrated, eat well, rest, and talk to someone about how you're feeling.
