Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Dyspepsia could be the cause for the symptoms that you have of ammonia smell. Change the diet, have more vegetables in your diet, avoid taking oily dishes, fat containing food, spicy food.

Infection also needs to be ruled out. On a tentative basis, the condition can be given a try with tablet Metronidazole 400 mg twice in a day for 5 days. Drink more water, stay free from anxiety and stress, stop taking alcohol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
