Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Chronic Indigestion Despite On Ranitidine While Having Celiac Disease?
I have Celiac s disease & usually have it under control, but for about 2 weeks experiencing acute acid indigestion. I have been taking OTC Ranitidine or Famotidine,but symptoms aren t going away. Is there anything else I can try before breaking down & going to my family doctor?
From your description, I am of the opinion that celiac disease is caused due to glutens. So you have to avoid wheat, barley and any food that contains gluten. Additionally, you can PPI inhibitors and have machine gel before having food.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
