I'm struggling with acid reflux and I'm taking a lot of medications for it. But I'm really looking for ways to prevent it in the first place. Can you give me some tips or advice on how to manage it better without over-relying on medicine? I'm concerned and would appreciate some guidance.

I've been on amoxicillin for a bacterial infection and I'm about four days into taking 2 tablets of 625mg each per day. I've started noticing that my stool looks black and tar-like. Is this a normal side effect from the meds or should I be worried about something more serious?
Passing black, tar-like stool can be a concerning side effect known as melena, which may indicate gastrointestinal bleeding. It is important to consult your healthcare provider immediately. In the meantime, you can consider taking a probiotic supplement to help maintain the balance of good bacteria in your gut.
