Question

I'm a bit worried about the medication I'm taking. I've been on Metolar XR 25 for about 15 years now, and I've developed ulcerative colitis. I'm starting to wonder if there's a chance the Metolar could be causing it. Should I think about switching to something else?

Question

For a couple of years now, I've been dealing with having to go to the toilet about 5 or 6 times a day. There's no stomach pain, but there's this discomfort that makes me feel better temporarily after going. There's no pain or burning when using the toilet. What might this be about, and could you suggest some solutions?

Question

I'm taking Metolar XR 25 and have been on it for about 10 or 11 years now. My blood pressure is staying pretty stable, but I've been dealing with some uncomfortable GI issues. I'm having lots of gas, stomach rumbling, loss of appetite, and a burning sensation in my stomach. Plus, constipation is a problem. Do you think it's time to switch medications?
