Gastrointestinal

Gastrointestinal medications cater to a wide variety of digestive issues. Antacids like Aluminum Hydroxide (Amphojel) and Calcium Carbonate (Tums) offer quick relief for occasional heartburn and indigestion by neutralizing stomach acid. Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) such as Omeprazole (Prilosec) and Pantoprazole (Protonix) are effective in treating chronic conditions like GERD by significantly reducing stomach acid production. H2 Blockers, including Ranitidine (Zantac) and Famotidine (Pepcid), also reduce stomach acid but are often used for short-term relief. For bowel disorders, medications like Mebeverine help in managing IBS symptoms, while Loperamide (Imodium) is a go-to for acute diarrhea. Laxatives such as Polyethylene Glycol (MiraLAX) and Bisacodyl (Dulcolax) are used to alleviate constipation.
