Can Ganaton OD And Providac Be Taken For Fatigue And Low Appetite?

I am not having any hunger and my intake is very low because of which I am feeling weak ( I had a history of illeal ulcer which was healed and confirmed through colonoscopy and capsule endoscopy). I am using Ganaton OD & Providac as prescribed by Gastroenterologist. Is it ok ?

Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
Ganton OD contains itopride. It is a prokinetic medication. It is used for treating abdominal bloating, gastroparesis etc. Providac is a probiotic that will replenish gut flora.
Fatigue and low appetite may occur due to many causes. These may not work in all instances.
I hope that answers your query.
Regards.
