Upset Stomach

[admarlow]

Me and my GF are going travelling soon, when ever we go she get a bad stomach, is there anything we can buy or get from the doctor to combat this?

Admarlow, how about some immodium or pepto bismal. By the way, your replies in the news section are helpful to me so thank you.

Eat the local yoghurt - that normally contains the 'good' bacteria to counteract the local 'bad' bacteria.

[admarlow]

is there anything out there which is really strong or can strenghten her stomach as she gets very sick!!

[mountainboo]

Immodium is very strong, If it's dioreaha your shes worried about that is? Try to make sure you only drink bottled water aswell.

www.highernature.com have lots of products that you can take just before and while you are on holiday. One of them is the naturally occuring bacteria found in yoghurt I believe, in capsule form so it doesn't have to be refridgerated. However, if you email them with this question, they will be able to tell you exactly what is recommended.

They are teamed by a bunch of qualified nutritionists and I use lots of products and vitimins from them. they are mail order too which makes them convenient.

I prefer kaolin and morphine from Boots to immodium.

Kaolin & morphine can be addictive. A lot of pharmacies have stopped selling it. I use Diarrhoea Relief from Savers. It`s only 99p for a pack of 6 & has the same main ingredient, 2mg Loperamide hydrochloride, as Immodium.

I used this stuff called motilium...not sure where its from cos my boyfriends mum gave it to me and although this doesnt stop diorrhea it does stop feelings of bloatedness and queasiness very well.

Immodium is very good.

Why not ask the doctor direct, instead of asking unknown people what the doctor might give you?

[admarlow]

why not just say nothing if you have nothing helpful to say, idiot!

What, like you, you mean?
