Should I Stop Taking Pantocid Dsr To Get Relieved Form Constipation?

I HAVE BEEN HAVING MOTION AFTER STARTING PANTOCID DSR DOSAGE 2 TIMES A DAY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING FOR 3 WEEKS NOW. 3 DAYS AGO I STARTED CIFRAN CT 2 TIMES DAILY AND SINCE I STARTED I HAVE BEEN HAVING PAIN AND BLOATED FEELING IN MY STOMACH. I HAVE HAD MOTION ONLY ONCE SINCE THEN. SHOULD I STOP TAKING THESE MEDICINE IF IT WILL HELP?
I AM ALSO ON OTHER MEDICATIONS LIKE SEEGRAF, TACROLIMUS, PREDNISOLONE, ARKAMINE, SHELCAL & NERVZ B.

Hello,

Cifran CT is having Ciprofloxacin.
It is broad spectrum antibiotic and likely to cause gastritis, bloating, nausea etc. So you can stop this drug. I have also gone through the other drugs you have mentioned. Prednisone is also causing similar kind of gastritis and other symptoms. So if not needed, you can also ask your doctor to stop this.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar, Pulmonologist
