I've been struggling with heartburn quite a bit and for the past three months, I've been taking Ocid 20mg on an empty stomach every day. I'm really curious if it's safe to continue taking it regularly like this. Could you shed some light on that for me?

I'm really worried because I wasn't diagnosed with malaria, but the doctor prescribed me Lariago and now I'm experiencing side effects like vomiting every time I burp or eat. It's been hard to eat anything for the past four days since I took Lariago. I don't have a fever anymore, but I've tried taking Rekool and Rabium for the nausea and vomiting, but they haven't really worked. Plus, I've been dealing with a lot of acidity. Could you suggest something to help with the vomiting?

You might be Allergic to lariago,stop taking that tablet, visit your doctor for alternate medicine.
