Can Glumetza And Cipralex Causes Bloating?

Hi I have major bloating to the point where my pants no longer due up. They fit a few days ago. The bloating keeps on getting worse. It is to the point I don t want to eat. I take 2000mg ofglumetza and 20 mg of cipralex with dinner. Could these be causing the bloating. How can I stop the bloating?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
It may be caused by this medication but certain degree of bloating is normal but in case of excessive bloating it may be sign of food allergy, hatal hernia ,IBS or inflammatory bowel diseases. So you should do gastroenterologic work up but first try to change your dietary habits, it means: eat smaller meals but more frequently, avoid fried and spicy food, take menta tea, avoid alcohol and coffee, eat probiotics and milk products, boiled food and vegetables. Also, there are medications such as Flobian, which may relieve such symptoms.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
