Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Shen Yonghua
Bloating and difficulty in defecation may be treated with the following medications:
1. Prokinetic agents: such as Domperidone tablets, Mosapride Citrate tablets, etc. These medications can enhance gastric motility, promote digestion and gastric emptying, thereby relieving symptoms of gastric distension.
2. Digestive agents: such as Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets, Multienzyme tablets, etc. These medications can aid in food digestion, reduce the burden on the stomach, and improve symptoms of bloating and indigestion.
3. Intestinal flora regulators: such as Lactobacillin tablets, Lactase tablets, etc. These medications can regulate the balance of intestinal flora, promote intestinal health, and help improve symptoms of difficult defecation.
4. Digestive enzyme preparations: such as Compound Azintimide Enteric-coated tablets. These medications can help break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates in food, reducing bloating caused by indigestion.
5. Mild laxatives: if the above measures are ineffective and constipation is severe, mild laxatives such as lactulose may be used short-term under a doctor's guidance to soften stools and promote defecation.
It is recommended to use these medications under the guidance of a doctor.
