I've been dealing with some gastric acidity for the past month, and I'm on medication, including 1 monticop tablet daily, 2 deriphyllin 300 tablets, and 3 rbson D capsules. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do to alleviate this issue or if a change in the medication might be necessary? Do you think these meds are contributing to my stomach problems, or is it something else I should be looking into?

View allMy friend has been taking Colimex tablets for about seven months now, kind of using them like a drug. We're a bit worried because his SGPT level is 45. Could this be related to the Colimex, and what should he do about it?

I'm experiencing pain just below my right ribs since yesterday. It gets worse when I breathe, laugh, or change positions while sleeping. I'm really concerned about what might be causing this. Could you please help me understand what it could be?
Hello, it sounds like you may be experiencing pain in your right ribs. This could be due to a muscle strain or inflammation of the rib cartilage. I recommend taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I recently did an SGPT test, and the value came back as 64. My SGOT and GGT reports are normal, though. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it okay?
An SGPT level of 64 is slightly elevated, which may indicate some liver inflammation or damage. To help lower your SGPT levels, you can consider taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, it is important to avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy weight, and follow a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Regular exercise can also help improve liver health.
