I've been having some trouble with my digestion for a couple of months. It feels like my stool isn't getting cleared properly. After eating dinner, my stomach feels really heavy and I start forming a lot of gas. It's even starting to feel like my stomach is getting inflated. I'm a bit worried and wondering what might be causing this. Could you give me some insight?

View allI've been dealing with some stomach discomfort lately and my doctor prescribed Sompraz D and Ulgel A syrup. Since I started taking them, I've noticed my stomach makes a lot of gurgling noises, especially when I'm lying down. Is this a normal side effect? Should I be worried?

I'm taking ranitidine for acid reflux and my doctor mentioned I should take it twice a day, but she didn't specify how many hours apart. The capsules are 150 mg each. Could you tell me when exactly I should be taking them? I've tried looking it up online but didn't find a clear answer.
For optimal effectiveness, you should take the 150 mg ranitidine capsules about **12 hours apart**. This means taking one dose in the morning and another in the evening, ideally after meals or as directed by your doctor. If you're unsure, it's always a good idea to check back with your doctor for specific timing instructions.
