What Is The Remedy For Lower Abdominal And Stomach Cramping?

I have taken Arthrotec for a few days and had the side effects of lower abdominal cramping and even stomach cramping. This is a sample that the RA doctor gave me to try. I have discontinued taking the medicine but am still hurting so do not want to even try the Vimovo. I have taken Pepto Bismol occasionally to stop the pain. Is there anything else I can do until I can get with my dr.?

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, I would like to advise that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated.

I would advise that you should take an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals.

Also avoid spicy and oily foods.
Avoid smoking and alcohol, if any.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
