Can I take hard dose medicines on empty stomach?
Eat hard dose medicines without eating food
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 20th Aug '24
Strong medicines taken without eating can cause stomach upset. You may experience the following symptoms: feel nauseous, have stomach pain, or even throw up. The reason is that the medicines can be harmful to an empty stomach. One way to solve this problem is to always eat something before taking your medicine. A small snack is enough to get you through this.

The fluid is hot.And I'm coughs a little bit Doctor please what is wrong with me?
Female | 50
You may have a tummy bug, or gastroenteritis, which makes you feel sick. It can cause a tummy ache, a thin watery bowel movement, and even a cough sometimes. The hot liquid coming from your anus is most probably diarrhea. This can happen when your stomach and intestines get irritability, usually, because of viral infections like norovirus. Staying hydrated with water or oral rehydration solutions and getting enough rest are vital. Eating light foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast might settle your stomach. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a gastroenterologist.

I am kennedy...and for years i have been taking ant acids when am in an occasion...or during travelling....my mind thought it was acid in the stomach, wen i take ant acid..there is no gas formation in the stomach and no regular farts. So i came to find that wen i take food like beans i expect to have more acid and farts but thats not the case...the farts has no smell...just stomach gas then a sound then a fart...
Male | 23
You've had gas in your tummy without a funky smell. This is normal, it occurs when our bodies process the food we eat. Some foods like beans tend to make more gas. To reduce the gassy feeling, try eating slower. Also, ditch fizzy drinks and split your meals into smaller portions.

My fiancee has been diagnosed with gluten intolerance and on the scale is a 3.8, being 0.2 away from being classed as having celiac disease. If he carried on eating gluten like normal, would he eventually develop celiacs disease? And if not should he cut gluten out anyway?
Male | 39
Bloating, diarrhea, and fatigue are some common symptoms of gluten sensitivity. In some cases, if a person keeps consuming foods containing this protein, they may develop celiac disease – an illness that makes the body react even more harshly towards gluten. To avoid further harm and discomfort, it would be best if he stopped eating anything with wheat or any other sources of gluten immediately.

Mild stomach pain. Bites after a while. At last I ate chicken and fish in the afternoon
Male | 25
You seem to have food poisoning. Food poisoning symptoms may consist of mild belly upset followed by throwing up or diarrhea after some time. Emissions of undercooked fowl or fish may result in stomach pain only. To cure the situation, get enough rest, drink lots of water, and forgo eating for a couple of hours. If it so happens that the symptoms you have become more severe or remain, it would be better if you visit a gastroenterologist.

what csn i take for a bubbly, gassy, gurgling stomach
Female | 17
Your rumbling tummy means gas is trapped inside. You may have eaten too quickly or gulped air while drinking. Certain foods like beans and veggies can cause this too. Go slowly when eating, skip fizzy drinks, and sip peppermint tea. A brief walk might help the gas pass through.

Your pains and black stools sound concerning. Upper abdomen and back discomfort can signal gastritis or kidney issues. Black stools indicate internal bleeding, maybe stomach or intestines.

I was diagnosed with typhoid after which the doctor gave me medicine for 10 days. After 10 days they gave me medicine again which also included Tramin plus. I would like to know why given Dromadin Plus because it is a strong pain reliever. Now there is no pain in my body.

Typhoid is due to a bacillus and can result in fever, body aches, and stomach problems. The medicine that your doctor prescribed acted to eliminate the bacteria that were responsible for the infection. The Tramin Plus contained in your medication is responsible for the relief of any pain or discomfort you may have been experiencing. To ensure that the infection has been completely treated, it is crucial to take your medication exactly as directed.

Additionally, pelvic and bellyache could also result from the accumulation of gas which causes bloating as well. To reduce these signs follow the doctor’s prescription on how to deal with H.pylori. In addition, take small meals more frequently; avoid foods that make you gassy, and keep drinking water.

You might be suffering from a stomach bug. A tummy bug usually causes headaches, tummy aches, vomiting, and diarrhea. Gut infection often strikes because of germs or parasites.
