Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am having heartburn because of vomiting. I could not brush my teeth. Vomit comes when I try to open my mouth fully. Please give me medicine for both heartburn and vomiting issues. I have been having this problem for six months. Please help.

Thanks.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I have reviewed your attached report (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity). I suggest a tablet of Pantoprazole 40 mg half an hour before breakfast, a tablet of Domperidone 10 mg a half hour before breakfast and dinner for two weeks, and syrup Gaviscon (sodium alginate) 2 teaspoons after each meal and even as per need for heartburn. I hope there will be no alarming symptoms like blood in vomiting, unintentional weight loss, family history of tuberculosis or cancer. Is there any use of regular painkillers or alcohol? Consult your specialist doctor, talk with them, and take medications with their consent.

I hope this information will help.

Thanks.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thanks for the reply.

Will this medicine give a permanent cure after two weeks?

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

This will relieve your symptoms, and if you take care of your diet, symptoms will likely not reoccur. In case of reoccurrence, you must check for H.pylori bacteria which causes stomach infections.

I hope this information will work.

Thanks.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
