Hello. Thanks for writing to ChatDoctorI will advise starting antacids [proton pump inhibitors like] omeprazole 20 mg twice a day. Sucralfate will protect gastric mucosa and will give protective covering. Gases formation can be reduced by eating easily digestible food, stop non veg, Chat Doctor. Hope this answers your query.
