HELLO & WELCOME TO HCM FORUM

YOU SHOULD GO FOR UGI ENDOSCOPY TO CONFIRM ANY GASTRIC ULCER DISEASE AS THE SYPMTOMS SUGGEST.

INSPITE OF OMEZ-D YOU SHOULD RABEPROZOLE/ESOMPRAZOLE + DOMPERIDONE 30 BD

THIS COMBINATION IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN OMEZ D

YOUR SYMPTOMS ARE REDUCED AFTER TAKING MEALS SO MOST LIKELY YOU MAY HAVE GASTRIC ULCER

THESE MEDICINES ARE SAFE YOU CAN TAKE FOR A PERIOD OF 5 YEARS WITHOUT ANY SIDE EFFECTS.

THESE GUIDELINE ARE TAKEN FROMAN AUTHETIC BOOK OF GASTROENTEROLOGY.


YOU SHOULD ALSO CONSULT WITH PHYSICIAN AND GASTROENTEROLOGIST

TAKE CARE AND GET WELL SOON.

Hi

Have you been diagnosed as having a peptic ulcer? If not i would suggest not to take an omez-d everyday as it may alter the pH of the natural acid in your stomach. Also, if you do have an ulcer and your physician has suggested taking an omez-d, then you must eat half an hour after you take it. Because the dizziness you experience is due to hypoglycemia (less sugar levels in the body) that happens when you are not eating regularly enough to maintain glucose levels in your body.

Get into the habit of eating small, healthy meals at regular intervals to maintain your glucose levels. If you have acidity, avoid extremely oily and spicy food and make sure you eat your dinner atleast 2 hours before you sleep so that reflux does not occur.

Go for homeopathy. It has no side effects and will give you a complete and permanent cure.

All the best!

welcome to HCM.

Do you take breakfast in the morning? if not then the dizziness in afternoon may be because of hunger and reduced blood sugar level which gets corrected after your have lunch. Dizziness and lightheadedness are also sometimes observed sideffects of OMEZ-D.

hope I hav answered your question.

Thank you
