Note: My dad has dibetes and prostrate issue for which he\ s taking medication.Hoping for early reply.Also we did a endoscopy found out to be normal. Thanks in Advanace, Ravi
Hi There are many causes of Hiccup. If there no systemic disease then generally it is associated with gastric causes. I think you should take combination of Domperidone and Pantoprazole twice a day on empty stomach before dinner and breakfast. I hope you will be fine TC
