Suggest Treatment For Stomach Discomfort After Taking Antibiotics
hello about two months ago i was diagnosed with a double ear infection i was given a powerful antibiotic. since then my stomach has not been right. constantly grownling,gas,slight discomfort...i went back to the doctor he gave me some xium(i know i spelled that wrong)but doc said the antibiotics is most likely culprit. im just looking for a second opinion since the pills was for ten days and my stomach is still not normal.

take ant acids & enzymes available at counter.
generally antibiotics do not cause stomach pain,it is caused by pain killers,
consult gastroenterologist for endoscopy,
he would prescribe,
drotin/buscopan for pain,
P P I e.g;pantaprazole for few days,
avoid junk foods,smoking,alcohol,cola,coffee.
take fresh fruits.
