Can I Drink Alcohol with Ibuprofen, Ofloxacin & Amlodipine?

Iam 38 year old male iam consuming ibrufen 400 mg ofloxacin 200 mg amlodine 5 mg shall I take alcohol after how many hours of gap

Answered on 12th Sept '24

Avoiding the interaction of alcohol with these medications is essential. The risk of a stomach bleed and low blood pressure can be amplified by alcohol when taken with ibuprofen and amlodipine, whilst dizziness and drowsiness can worsen with ofloxacin and alcohol. It is wiser to refrain from alcohol for at least 24 hours after your last dose to ensure there are no harmful interactions.

Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out of this pain, confusion and frustration. I am Rohan from Pune. This is my Clinical summary -Rohan, a 29-year-old male, presented with chief complaints of reflux symptoms and severe abdominal pain persisting for the past 3 months.And episodes of diarrhea.Upon examination, his vital signs were stable. Diagnostic procedures, including gastroscopy and colonoscopy, were performed, leading to the diagnosis of a duodenal ulcer, pan gastritis and pathological findings of lymphocytic colitis. The treatment approach involved the administration of medications, as mentioned in the prescription, to manage the condition. Regular follow-up visits were recommended to monitor the progress and adjust the treatment regimen accordingly. After two and a half months of treatment, significant improvement was noted, with no abdominal pain reported, and the patient's overall well-being has improved. Consequently, the dosage of medications has been reduced. Continued monitoring and adherence to the prescribed treatment plan are necessary to ensure complete resolution of symptoms and prevent recurrence. This was my condition eight months ago. Right now I am very frustrated because of gut problem. It's paining even after following treatment and strict diet for eight months. I almost lost 8 kg. I went for second opinion(Leading Gastroentrologist in pune) . That doctor told me that your ulcers are healed completely.And lymphocytic colitis was misdiagnosed. Now It's a IBS that causing the pain and not colitis.He prescribed me Librax(Clinidium+chlorobenzodioxide) two times in a day along with Amixide h(chlorobenzodioxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain goes away completely like that problem doesn't exist.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just took those above medicines to cope up with pain One more thing to add here is that I was diagnosed with GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) few years back. I was taking escitalopram( Lexapro 10 mg)on and off prescribed by psychiatrist.But My Gastroenterologist told me to stop using lexapro as it can cause ulcer. So I stopped using it completely since year. I want to get completely rid of these medicines and want to live normal life.

Gut issues can be challenging. You've successfully healed ulcers, which is great, but IBS challenges remain. IBS is common and can cause belly pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Often, stress or certain foods trigger it. Medications like Librax and Amixide H, prescribed by your gastroenterologist, can help manage the symptoms. However, lifestyle changes are also important. Stress relief methods, regular exercise, and a fiber-rich, healthy diet can make a significant difference.

Hi, i am Zain, I want to ask about medicine Boanzee, what purpose this medicine.

Male | 25

Boanzee is a drug that cures stomach problems. It is specifically used for dyspepsia; this may cause bellyache, inflation, as well as an overstuffed feeling after eating. Indigestion can occur when we eat hurriedly or consume some specific types of food. Nonetheless, Boanzee will soothe your belly thus relieving the discomfort.

These are the symptoms of acid reflux or GERD chest burns. Consider seeing a gastroenterologist for an assessment. Symptoms can be relieved by not consuming spicy or acidic foods, losing weight, and elevating the head while sleeping.

Constipation can happen due to not eating well or moving around enough. Try to eat more fruits, and veggies, and drink plenty of water. Also, avoid junk food and oily stuff. These changes might help you feel better.

Female | 25

Based on the symptoms described (bloating, tingling in feet, weakness, shortness of breath), you need to consult a gastroenterologist or a general physician immediately. These symptoms could indicate various underlying conditions such as gastrointestinal issues, neurological problems, or even cardiac issues. It's crucial to get a proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment from a specialist.
