Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 30-year-old female. I weigh about 113 pounds with a height of 5'3". I am experiencing severe stomachache, hyperacidity, dizziness, and nausea. This is the first time I felt and I feel like there is too much acid on my stomach. What medications can I take?

Answered by Dr. Rakshith Sardool Kothapalli

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You are experiencing dyspepsia, and epigastric pain if I am not wrong. It is due to hypersecretion of gastric acid or due to some insult against the gastric mucosa which is a protective layer of the stomach. This layer gets eroded due to various reasons like alcohol, painkillers, etc. Over secretion of acid might be due to stress, lack of sleep, lack of alkaline food in the diet, etc. So check these factors. Kremil S is not competent. Maalox only gives momentary relief. So let us use PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) for a few days and shut down the acid production significantly. This might give the gastric mucosa some time to heal and become tough again. Remember, these medications which I am going to prescribe are not to be taken perpetually. Take them as advised. Thank you and take care. Regards
