Respected Gastroenterologists 🙏🏻 can we take the following meds to manage stomach infection and indigestion ?
Nexpro RD 40, before breakfast,
Rifagut 550 BD
Providac capsule BD
Medigas capsule BD
Instaraft 10ml BD
If we're taking Nexpro RD 40, we shouldn't be adding Vonefi 20 to the above meds?
Warmest Regards 🙏🏻
Despite medical management with proton pump inhibitors, analgesics, and supportive medications, the abdominal pain persisted. Investigations including CECT abdomen, abdominal ultrasonography, and X-ray revealed no significant abnormalities. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy performed in February 2026 showed antral gastritis with a negative rapid urease test. Due to ongoing symptoms, repeat endoscopy with biopsy was conducted in April 2026, which revealed Grade III lower esophageal sphincter, H. pylori–associated gastritis. I was subsequently treated with H. pylori eradication therapy(HP KIT) and continued ppi's for 4 more weeks.
But symptoms still persist.
Hello Doctor, my father had an angioplasty on 7th Jan 2026. His latest blood report shows an elevated GGT (154) and ALT (69). I have attached the Ultrasound, and Fibroscan reports.
He is currently taking Ecosprin 75, Prasudoc 10, Tazloc 20, Orofer XT, and Nikoran 5 in the morning; and Atorva 20, Concor 2.5, and Nikoran 5 at night. He also finished a 12-week course of Uprise 60K recently.
Could the high GGT be due to the Atorva, his daily intake of homemade paneer, or the Vitamin D? Please let us know how we can bring these levels down safely.

I am a 31-year-old male. For the past 2 months, I have been experiencing constipation and difficulty passing stools. I get the urge to pass stool daily, but only a small amount comes out, and I often feel that my bowels are not completely emptied. The stool is usually hard, dry, and pellet-like (similar to goat stool). Sometimes I need to strain while passing stool.
I eat normal meals every day, drink around 3 liters of water daily, and regularly eat bananas. Despite these measures, my symptoms have not improved. I also completed one full bottle of Duphalac syrup, but it did not provide significant relief.
I am currently taking Flotral 10 mg for an enlarged prostate as prescribed by my urologist. I would like to know if this medication could be contributing to my constipation. I have also noticed occasional bad-smelling stools. Please advise on the possible cause, treatment, and whether I should consult a gastroenterologist.
