Gastrointestinal complaints are a very popular side effect of the drug Olfen. The doctor should decide to stop the treatment, and before you consult with the person ordering the treatment, I recommend using the following steps: Stomach shielding drug in the form of a proton pump inhibitor (e.g. Controloc Control, Ortanol Max) please take 30 minutes before breakfast, then eat an easily digestible meal and immediately after it take the Olfen SR capsule. After 30-60 minutes, I recommend an additional protective preparation for the intestines (e.g. Lacidofil, Dicoflor, Sanprobi Superformuła), because according to the latest research, nsaids, i.e. Olfen, cause intestinal dysbiosis, hence your ailments. If the above steps do not improve the situation, you should consult your doctor to modify your treatment.
