What Causes Recurrent Nausea?
Hi, Most probably it will be due to severe gastric reflux due to multiple drug intake. As a first line management, you can take antacids like Pantoprazole or Omeprazole for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist to consult a gastroenterologist and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
