I was just wondering, should I take Mucaine Gel syrup before or after meals? I've been a bit confused about the right timing, and I really don't want to mess it up. Can you help me with that?

I've been dealing with constant diarrhea for the last couple of days, and even though I'm taking loperamide and using O.R.S., it hasn't stopped. Should I be worried? Is there anything else I can do to help stop it?

Persistent diarrhea despite taking loperamide and ORS warrants further attention; consider consulting a gastroenterologist or a primary care physician to rule out underlying causes like bacterial or viral infections, food poisoning, or inflammatory bowel disease; they may prescribe additional medications, such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory agents, and recommend stool tests, blood work, or other diagnostic procedures to determine the underlying cause and develop an effective treatment plan.

Why is my stomach ulcer not healing?

Sometimes, an infection such as Helicobacter pylori may be present or non compliance to diet protocol and lifestyle modifications, usage of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can prevent an ulcer from complete healing.
