I have stomach pain that gets worse after meals, what can I do?

Question

Hello, for the last 4 days I have had stomach pains. The pain gets worse 1 hour after eating. I am known for dyspepsia and gastric reflux. Lately I had a lot of stress. 1 hour after eating I have a lump in my epigastric area that runs under my ribs on the right side and with loose stools when this pain occurs. I take pantoloc every day. I do not have a fever. Hello, I don't see any relief from this particular pain with pantoloc, but normally it helps. I also took antispasmodics, no improvement. No change in diet. As for alcohol, with the holiday season I consumed a little more white wine. The pain gets worse a few hours after eating. Thank you

Good morning, ma'am, Is Pantoloc successful in relieving your symptoms? Have you changed anything in your diet in the last few weeks (food, alcohol, quantities)? Thank you for the information. Considering that you are taking several prescribed treatments for your symptoms, I think it would be better to redirect your question to your pharmacist, who will be in a better position to re-evaluate your treatment and, if necessary, suggest alternatives to your doctor and ensure a close follow-up with you. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
