Has anyone ever used papaya enzyme? Papain is the ingredient in the product Accent, the meat tenderizer and is supposed to help with digestion when taken after eating.
I have used it for years. Much better for your health than any of the prescription protein pump inhibitors like Prevacid, nexium, and the rest of the medications given for indigestion.

Good morning!
I have IBS too, and suffer from nausea when it flares up.
My doctor told me to take OTC Zantac and it helped alot!
I know it's for heatburn but Dr thinks the acid
in my stomach accumulates at this time and that's what
makes me feel sick. Zantac takes care of it quickly.
Give it a try !

Is zantac actually ranitidine Mikka ? Sure i have seen it on the shelf in a store, am sure it is ranitidine, actually it is, just did quick search.

I get it from my doc, well i did, doc has put me back on lansarapole, claiming nausea started when i was switched to ranitidine a while ago, i dont think it did, doc was not having it though and switched meds again, i am trying not to take lansarapole as i think they do me more harm than good, eye infections being one, it causes problems with peoples stomachs if you read list of its side effects, IBS is something i just have to live with, taking herbal teas helps to an extent, better than what my doc is offering anyway, thanks for your input about this, hope you feel better, IBS is no fun.

Got no idea what BPC-157 is or how to find it, dont even know what a peptide is, all these are new terms to me, best to explain what it actually is Livework, is it of any use for the nausea caused by IBS ? If using for a bicep tear, do you mean its helping it repair ? I could do with several repairs to my body, esp the nerve damage in my neck or arthritis as one dr told me i basically have.
If you want to post in forum please do, if not then you can always pm anyone (like me) who would like more info.
I wont take anything until i know its safe and others have backed that up.

I would agree Zantac is good for controlling stomach acid/nausea. However I like to keep phenegran on hand in case of a major case such as a stomach virus. The only problem is it causes major drowsiness which can be a good thing when a stomach bug hits. Zofran is similar but not as effective as phenegran in my opinion.

Bandit, I think you and I would get along great in person.
I completely agree when it comes to nausea. Tried and true promethazine is my go-to when experiencing nausea from hunger pains, being sick, even helps with plane rides. I know there are plenty of other strong antiemetics that are available by prescription that work even better but are typically indicated for patients with severe nausea from chemo or another serious disease.
Promethazine is a perfect compromise for availability and pricing. And it works!

Very reasonably priced thinking around $29 for 100 Ct. They usually come in either 10 or 25 mg form, I would start with 10 just to see how they do you. Yes also excellent as an antihistamine, sleep aid, nausea etc. Tried and true give me promethazine over zofran anyday.
