Lopidus 2 MG Capsule Health Feed

Asked for female, 56 years old from Kolkata

My mother is a ibs d patient, age 58. She goes for stool every day for 10-12 times. She is under medication and have a sedentary life style. She regularly takes loperamide, inset, librax and rifaxcin for 2 months. Alternatively she is taking this treatment for 2 years. She used to have leg swelling since then which occurs but automatically gets cured. 1 year before her kidney and liver profile test were ok. But during this 1 month her swelling of leg have increased. So her liver function and kidney profile test have been done. Her albumin level is 3.2,24 hour urine protein test- 324 mg/day, urine protein -18 mg/dl, esr-20, crp-.04, urea-9.87, creatine-0.57. Her weight is 26 kg since childhood she suffers from digestive problems and her weight was 32 kg. She cannot digest protein, diary products hence her diet is low in protein .her stool frequency is not getting low even after taking so many medications also. She regularly goes to toilet for 10-12 and it is more after eating anything. Recently it has increased as during night time before going to bed she is also going for stool. Previously before 6 months she only use to go for stool in the morning till 11 am. After that it gets stopped. Her colonoscopy and endoscopy reports done 1 year before were ok. Due to her increased frequency of stool during this 1 month she took kutsjghsn vati from dabur and stooped the allopathy. She got relaxed from it. But suddenly drop in albumin and excretion of protein from urine is whether the side effects of kutajghanvati?/ loperamide 2 tablets she takes in a week interval of 4 days. Is the reports of the recent blood test and urine test anything serious. Kindly suggest for any medicine or remedy during this covid period as we are not able to go to hospital.

Health Query

I am 40 years female. I have stomach problems. Sometimes I suffer from loose motions. Whenever I take Probiotics or loperamide I suffer from severe nausea and gastritis. Then to stop gastritis I take pan 40 or rabeprazole. Gastritis goes but loose motion starts. I am into this vicious cycle for many days. There were some days where I am fine. But since 1 month when periods started I had severe acidity. I had taken pylokit as prescribed by Dr. last week. After 2/3 days I again had gastritis. Now Dr. prescribed rabemonic plus and rekool syrup. Now gastritis has gone but I suffer from gas foul smelling gases in the evenings and also loose motions. Please advise me something by which I don't suffer from gastritis as well as loose motions at the same time. What may be the reason for such problem that when acidity goes loose motions starts and when loose motions stops acidity starts. Please advise me a complete cure for my stomach problem.

Asked for female, 24 years old from Delhi

It's been three months now since I am facing this issue. Actually, I have been having loose motions continuously since three months. Whatever healthy I am eating, I am only getting loose motions. Only once or twice have I got normal stools in the last three months. The average frequency of these loose motions is about 3-4 times a day. And since 1 month, whenever I urinate, I paas very thin stool every time. The colour of the stool is normal yellow. The texture as I said is usually watery and when I urinate, the stool passed is very thin (not watery) at all. It looks a bit oily at that time as well. So far, I have had tablet loperamide, once in a day for 3 days, on a doctor's advice in the month of january. Since then, I have had ors, I eat one banana everyday but nothing is working. I bloat a lot even though I don't even eat much because of the fear of having another round of stool motion. My water intake is usually 2-3 litres in a day. Please suggest me what is the main concern you see here and why is it happening to me despite of not eating any junk food or unhealthy food item.

Health Query

My wife aged 56 years is diabetic. She takes long term insulin (lantus) and other anti diabetic medicines. The diabetes is under control. About 3 months back, I got her blood test done in which lipid profile, kft, lft, tsh are normal. In the morning of 27th. July, she suddenly complained pain in stomach and thereafter she had several loose motions. (it is noteworthy that she had not eaten any food from market.) I gave her norflox tz, loperamide and electral. She also developed fever, so I gave paracetamol. I gave norflox tz in the evening also. By around 8 pm, loose motion was completely stopped. But mouth temperature 102 f continuing so I have been giving paracetamol every 4 hours. Fever has come down in the morning of 28th. July. My query is as to what medicine should be given to her now.

All medication to continue for 10 days. You have to have a 3 days complete afebrile period. Give her lots of fluids to take. Give her warm water to drink 4 times a day. Curd and banana are good for gastric immunity. Give her probiotics.

Asked for male, 42 years old from Bangalore

Hi, I am 40 year, Suffering from indigestion and loose stools 3-4 times a day since one month. I have gastric problem earlier, sometimes I feel heartburn and mild chest pain. Consulted doctor many times, suggested no issue with other disease than gastritis and and treated accordingly. But I am worried because of long time irritation in stomach, Some times I use to take eldoper to avoid this irritation, but someone suggested to take Apple Cider vinegar and Lemon juice with ginger and salt before each meal. Tried this for 1 week and I feel this is working a bit in avoiding Burp, heartburn and more watery stools. Stools reduced from 4 times to 2 times. But I feel food is not getting digested properly, its not healthier stool. So to avoid any complications in future, I need expert doctor's treatment and remedy. Please suggest something.

First stick to a vegetarian diet. Fix your time for breakfast, lunch & dinner. This should be a regular habit. You must take time out for exercise, either in the morning or in the evening. Start with alternate days, increase slowly & then go on to 5 to 6 days in a week. You can continue with lemon juice.
If you do not improve in 2 week's time; get back to me.
With Regards.
