I started lovan 3 days ago only half dose once a day my tummy hurts and i'm worried it may affect my pancreas as i suffered with pancreatitis last yr?

Doctor can evaluate: There are too many possible reasons for a tummy ache in a person, and most people get a tummy ache occasionally. An evaluation by a primary care doctor can help decide it one's tummy ache is related to a new medication, or is due to some other cause.
