What Causes Stomach Cramps After Taking Dayquil?

I have had a cold/ flu for 5 days. I took a DayQuil tablet on an empty stomach. Since then I have had stomach cramping and feel like my stomach is burning inside with pain. What can I do naturally to heal my stomach? Is this something I should seek medical care for? Just need the burning to stop.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Don't take on an empty stomach. These medications are usually gastric irritants so take after food or along with antacids.

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