Accepted Answer

Sulphur smell: That type of flatulence often comes from sulphur containing foods like eggs and certain vegetables. If you can't pinpoint the offending foods in your case,try taking activated charcoal products. Also reduce intestinal gas by avoiding air swallowing or making yourself burp. Lactose intolerance causes excessive gas also. Taking probiotics help some people with this complaint.

Question 4

taking citalopram (20mg) and zyprexa (olanzapine) (2.5mg) and have sulphur smelling gas every night. eating more, can a change in diet cause this bad smelling gas?

Accepted Answer

Side effects?: I don't believe that any of those meds are the direct culprit of your discomfort. At the same time, since Zyprexa (olanzapine) increases the craving for carbohydrates and hyperphagia (eating excessively), this med can be a factor. Many people on medications that might cause a metabolic syndrome are advised to consult with nutritionists to solve the problem. I suggest to consider this recommendation.

Accepted Answer

: Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!! Most of the reason that people feel so poorly after viral gastroenteritis is dehydration. You will recover from the virus, but you will feel much better along the way if you’re able to get to the point that your urine is almost colorless. You can also take out acids if you are having acid reflux. See your doctor if you are no better in four or five days. Good luck.
