I'm currently on Clindamycin IV, Sulfa, Ketek, and Mepron.

The Sulfa is new, and I have the worst gas and bloating. I tried Gas-X, but it didn't work. Anyone have any tricks?

The anti-yeast diet and good probiotics would be my first thoughts. Are you already doing those things?

Scary that the Gas-X didn't help. [Eek!]

Hey AP

sorry to hear about the gas. I couldn't go out in public for a while on my meds because of gas-not to mention the pain & bloating. Pardon the pun but bad gas really stinks.

I thought extra strength PhaZymes helped the
most for me. Make sure to run this by your doc to make sure it doesn't interact with your other meds.

you may want to ask your doc about adding nystatin. Its not supposed to inpact the liver & does help for intestinal yeast if that is the cause.

Hope this helps

Hugs & healing
Dana

But my gas comes out through burps, or a seldom non-stinky fart.

I do take probiotics and stuff. Woke up this morning vomiting. I think it was/is the change in meds, so, this too shall pass.
