For a person with parkinson's, what is the best medicine for intestinal cramps?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It depends...: For constipation, metamucil (bulking fiber) + stool softener is a good daily regimen. For intestinal spasm, Hyoscyamine can cut excess saliva/ drooling and reduce spasm. For nausea, consider ondansetron, dimenhydrinate, or promethazine. For bloating/ gas pain/ gastritis, simethicone +/- antacid liquid works well. Ask your neurologist for a med regimen tailored for you. Good luck!

First of all he: Need to be evaluated and diagnosis has to be made . If we treat only symptoms , we are missing the big picture . Have full examination and get treatment , .
