I'm having a really tough time with constipation and I'm not sure what syrup might help. Also, Im a bit lost about what types of foods I should be eating to help with this. Can you guide me on what to do?

For constipation, you can take syrup Duphalac 15ml once daily. Additionally, you should increase your intake of fiber-rich foods such as fruits (apples, pears, berries), vegetables (broccoli, carrots, spinach), whole grains (oats, brown rice), and legumes (beans, lentils). It is also important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Regular physical activity can also help alleviate constipation.

you may not experience any adverse effects from having a few beers, but its important to be cautious. The best course of action is to avoid alcohol for the rest of your treatment and for 48 hours after you finish the medication. If you feel unwell or develop any symptoms, seek medical advice right away.

I've been experiencing a really concerning issue whenever I eat. I get this severe pain in my chest, close to where my heart is, right after meals. It seems to get worse when I have spicy foods. Oddly enough, if I lie down immediately, the pain goes away. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

Can having a positive H. pylori rut test result be linked to the shortness of breath I've been experiencing for the last 7 months? I'm just a bit concerned about what's causing it and wondering if there's any connection.
