Suggest Treatment For Flatulence
Female, 5 8 , 225 pounds. I have flatulence problems since 2-3 years. Comes and goes, some periods are worse than others. Flatus are very smelly (some people have compared it to something rotten), and unfortunately I can t control my farts. I m always afraid someone at work will comment on that. I tried the FODMAP diet but could not pinpoint exactly what was causing it. I take doxycycline at the moment for a sinusitis, which makes it worse I think. Anything I can do?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be due to intestinal infection and in my opinion condition can be treated with the medicines given bellow,
1) Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for 10 days
2) Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day for three weeks
3) Tab Domperidone 30 mg once in day for three weeks
eat more vegetable and fiber containing diet, no fatty food, oily food, drink more water, hope this information helps, take care.
