Is it safe to give Gelusil syrup to my diabetic grandmother for her stomach pain and burning chest discomfort, and what is the correct dose, given that she is already taking Omez and Aciloc 150?

Asked by Female, 55 · 19 days ago

Gelusil is generally safe for diabetics, but it can interfere with how her body absorbs Omez (omeprazole) and Aciloc (ranitidine). If used, space Gelusil at least two hours apart from her other medicines. A common dose is 1 to 2 teaspoons (5-10 ml) after meals. However, because she is already taking two acid-reducing medications and still experiencing chest discomfort, it is very important to consult her doctor. In patients with diabetes, persistent chest discomfort should always be evaluated by a healthcare professional to ensure her safety and proper care.
