Dr. Shen Yonghua
For symptoms such as gastrointestinal bloating, intestinal rumbling, and excessive flatulence, medication selection should be based on the specific cause and severity of symptoms.
1. Domperidone Tablets: Can promote gastrointestinal motility, thereby relieving bloating symptoms.
2. Trimebutine Maleate Tablets: Regulates irregular gastric motility and helps promote digestion.
3. Cefixime Dispersible Tablets, Levofloxacin Hydrochloride Capsules: Used for anti-infective treatment targeting bacterial gastroenteritis.
4. Probiotics: Such as Bifidobacterium Triple Live Capsules and Bacillus licheniformis Live Capsules; probiotic preparations help regulate the balance of intestinal flora.
5. Antiflatulent Tablets: The main ingredient is simethicone, which helps reduce gas in the intestines.
These medications should be used under a doctor's guidance. Before considering pharmacological treatment, it is recommended to adjust lifestyle and dietary habits first, such as reducing intake of high-fiber foods, avoiding swallowing excessive air, eating at regular intervals with controlled portions, and increasing appropriate physical activity.
