Could stopping or taking too much of the medications Gabapin, Etoshine, and Pan D cause my mother-in-law to experience severe, constant stomach pain, constipation, and trapped gas, and what should we do next since her ultrasound was normal and home remedies like Pudin Hara, Digene, and Loose have not helped?
Yes, stopping or taking incorrect doses of her medications can certainly cause these distressing symptoms. Etoricoxib (Etoshine) can severely irritate the stomach lining, leading to pain, while gabapentin (Gabapin) often causes constipation and bloating. Additionally, abruptly stopping pantoprazole (in Pan D) can trigger a rebound of intense stomach acid. Since home remedies like Digene and Lactulose (Loose) haven't helped despite a normal ultrasound, please consult her doctor or a gastroenterologist soon. They can safely adjust her prescriptions and may recommend an endoscopy to check her stomach lining. Please keep her comfortable and hydrated.
