Hi,
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a common condition that affects the digestive system and can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. It's important to follow your physician's advice for managing your symptoms.
Regarding the 5 Phos tablets, it is a homeopathic medicine that is primarily used for the treatment of weakness, fatigue, and lack of energy. It is not specifically indicated for IBS or joint pain. However, everyone reacts differently to medications, and feeling sleepy after taking a medication is not uncommon. It's possible that the 5 Phos tablets are causing drowsiness in your case, but it's also possible that the drowsiness is due to other factors.
If you are experiencing gastric pain, you should discuss this with your physician. They may recommend additional tests or medications to help manage your symptoms. Overall, it's important to communicate any concerns or questions you have with your healthcare provider, as they are best equipped to provide personalized advice and treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
