I'm really worried about my father. Weve used Dizone 250 mg before to help him stop drinking and it worked, but we stopped it for a year and he started wanting to drink again. We gave him one tablet with dinner and after a few days he felt really uneasy and started vomiting, just like last time. This time though, he had some blood in his vomit, which didnt happen before. Is it normal for this medicine to cause blood in vomit or should we be concerned about something else? I'm really worried about the blood part.

, forceful vomit may cause rupture of thin vein or capillary so vomiting may be occurred. Diazon is disulfiram an antialcoholic agent so it works.

View allI've had two endoscopies and my doctor diagnosed me with GERD. They prescribed some tablets, but I'm still struggling with symptoms like constant upper stomach discomfort, feeling like my stomach is always full, and hardly ever burping even after eating. Talking makes me tired, and I can't relax even when taking deep breaths my chest expands, but my stomach muscles stay tense. Sometimes my throat feels tight too. I read about fundoplication surgery for GERD do I really need it, or can tablets still help? I'm really worried about this.
It's understandable to be worried when your GERD symptoms persist despite medication. Fundoplication surgery, which involves wrapping the upper part of the stomach around the lower esophagus, can be an effective treatment option for persistent GERD symptoms. However, it's not always the first approach, and medication may still be sufficient for some. A thorough discussion with your doctor is crucial to determine the best course of action for your individual situation.

I had large intestine surgery a month ago because of some perforations they removed part of it and reconnected it. I usually smoke shisha or hookah just for fun without inhaling. Is it safe for me to do that now?
After large intestine surgery, it’s best to avoid shisha or hookah, even if not inhaled, as the smoke and carbon monoxide can affect healing and overall bowel function.

I'm dealing with pinworms in my stomach again and, from what I remember, I used to take ZENTEL for this when I was a kid. I'm really unsure about how to proceed. Could you guide me on what I should do?
For pinworms, the typical adult dose of Zentel (Albendazole) is 400mg, taken as a single dose, and repeated in 2 weeks to ensure complete elimination of the parasites
