What Are The Side Effects Of Normaxin?

since 2005 i have acidity and motion problem. motions are usally fluffy , pale and my farting stinks really bad. Early morning i would wake up with sever pressure on chest , as if something is stuck.Heartburning if not having antacids or PPI. I feel bloated , i fart and burp a lot, and feel hungry very frequently. Before and after food there will be sounds in stomach , here and there. While sleeping i feel back ache. towards the lower portion. i feel mild pain in upper stomach after food at times, and morning while waking up i have discomfort in uppder stoamach when symtopms are aggravated.pressing the upper stomach helps. I tend to loose weight at the slightest. Have a disturbed sleep usually. And i in general stress a lot for different reasons. 32 years old. in last 7 years I have been medicated for H Pylori 2 times. in recent endoscopy , a month ago (5th times in last 8 years) they found antral gastrities , indicating dyspepsia. last 2 years i was taking ganaton total , and normaxin (twice a day) which improved my symptom , and B12 shots for a year.then i stopped medication , my problems came back after a month. Any sort of multivitamin makes my life really worse. I am still loosing weight now. My questions to you: 1) I will consider getting manometry and Ph level test early next year. Till then can I keep using ganaton total and Normaxin? 2) is there any side effects of normaxin like sleeping pills , is it addictive?can i continue? 3) 3 days back I have been prescribed Sueria L, Zincovit(it is making things bad i feel , so stopping) , Moriase I sachet (not sure if it is working) , and Kyrub 10 mg. I am not getting any result with this medication , as i think the multi vitamin is making things worse as before. 4) Last 2 years I took ganaton total, Normaxin , VSL3. then i stopped . Can i take them back.as it helps me , gives relief and weight also i was gaining that time. Now last 4 years i have lost 4 kgs.Now 58 KGs from 62. long term usage of PPI , can cause D , iron B12 deficiency and increased gastrine level .Like that Normaxin , does it have any side effects. which fiber supplement i can use? I can not tkeep visiting doctors , as the symptoms are genric and the triggers from food is so specific . Want to understand the medicnes i can take when i have symptoms over the counter. And want to understand the relation between GERD and IBS . IBS causes mal absorption?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
After going through your complaints I feel you are suffering from Anxiety disorder.

Your main problem is Gastritis, GERD which is psycho somatic disorder. means it can be caused by mental stress. Your second problem is IBS. Which is also psycho somatic disorder.

So I would suggest try to solve the cause behind your physical problems. Which is anxiety and mental stress.

Do some meditation courses, which will teach you to remain calm during stressful situation.

Do regular exercise. Walking is the best exercise.

Consult a psychiatrist to evaluate your condition. You may require some medicine for your anxiety.

Try to engage in some social work, volunteer for NGO to help people in need.

When you will recover from Anxiety, all the other problems will go away by itself.

Feel free to ask if any queries.

Hope this advice helped you.
