Please consult

Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician, and your case has been allotted to me. Thank you for sharing the details clearly. I understand your concern, and I’ll explain this in simple terms. Understanding your current problem Loose stools with mucus occurring 3–4 times during the day and not at night, especially after gallbladder removal, is a common and treatable condition. After cholecystectomy, excess bile entering the intestine can cause: • Bile acid–related diarrhea • Gut irritation and spasms • IBS-like symptoms The medicines prescribed by your gastroenterologist are appropriate and commonly used for this condition. About your medicines and urination difficulty Let’s look at them one by one: • Rifaximin 550 mg – Acts locally in the gut, very unlikely to cause urinary problems • Psyllium husk – Fiber supplement, does not affect urination • Vasorex – Used for gut spasm control; urinary side effects are uncommon • Itokon 50 mg (Itopride) – Improves gut motility; rarely, it can cause urinary difficulty, especially if there is dehydration or underlying prostate/bladder sensitivity In most cases, difficulty in urination is NOT dangerous but needs evaluation. What you should do now • Do NOT stop medicines on your own, especially since they are helping your stools • Ensure adequate water intake (very important with psyllium husk) • Observe if the urine difficulty is: • Reduced urine flow • Burning sensation • Incomplete emptying • If symptoms persist for more than 2–3 days, inform your gastroenterologist — they may: • Adjust the dose • Temporarily stop or replace one medicine • Check urine routine to rule out infection Consult a doctor immediately if: • You are unable to pass urine at all • Severe lower abdominal pain develops • Fever or burning urination appears • Blood in urine Reassurance Your bowel symptoms are well-controlled, which is a positive sign. The urinary issue is most likely temporary and reversible, and usually manageable with minor adjustment — not something to panic about. For a one-to-one consultation, you may reach out to me on 85271646 seven seven. I’ll guide you step by step if symptoms continue.

It's due to vasorex drug .

Based on your history of gallbladder removal and current symptoms, your bowel complaints are most consistent with post cholecystectomy bowel dysfunction or IBS type symptoms, and the medicines prescribed such as rifaximin, vasorex, itokon and psyllium husk are commonly used and appear to be helping your stools, which is a good sign. Difficulty in urination is not a known or common side effect of rifaximin or psyllium husk. However, medicines like vasorex and itokon, which act on gut motility and smooth muscles, can occasionally cause urinary hesitancy or a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying in some individuals, especially if you are sensitive to them.
