Hello,
As I say that the dyspepsia in other word indigestion mostly happens due to infection and it always associated with hypersecretion of acid, so these both the condition needs medical treatment first, and the best drug of choice is tablet Metronidazole twice in day with tablet Rabeprazole once in a day, care need to be taken in diet, avoid taking heavy meal, spicy and oily meal, have light diet semi-solid diet, soup, fruit juice is preferable else it is nothing to worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
