Health And Lifestyle

Follow a balanced diet and avoid foods and drinks that trigger acid reflux, such as spicy foods, caffeine, and alcohol. Eat smaller, more frequent meals instead of large meals to prevent overloading the stomach. Maintain a healthy weight to reduce pressure on the stomach and esophagus. Avoid lying down immediately after eating; wait at least 2-3 hours. Elevate the head of your bed if you experience nighttime symptoms. Manage stress through relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises.

Disease Explanation

thumbnail.sv

GERD is a chronic condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and symptoms like heartburn, regurgitation, and discomfort. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the lining of the stomach, small intestine, or esophagus. They are often caused by infection with Helicobacter pylori bacteria or long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

FAQ's on Yees 20mg Tablet 15s

What are the long term side effects of Yees?

If Yees is used for more than 3 months, certain long term side effects may be seen. The most important of these is low magnesium levels in your blood which may make you feel tired, confused, dizzy, shaky or dizzy. You may also have muscle twitches or irregular heartbeat. If the use is further prolonged for more than a year, you may have an increased risk of bone fractures, stomach infections and vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 deficiency can make you anemic, as a result of which you may feel more tired, weak, or pale. Additionally you may have palpitations, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, indigestion, loss of appetite, flatulence (gas) or nerve problems such as numbness, tingling and problem in walking.

What is the best time to take Yees?

Usually, Yees is taken once a day, first thing in the morning. If you take Yees twice a day, take 1 dose in the morning and 1 dose in the evening. The tablets should be swallowed whole (remember not be chewed or crushed) and taken at least 1 hour before a meal with some water.

Can Yees cause weight gain?

Weight gain is reported in less than 1% of the patients taking Yees but the exact cause is unknown. One possible explanation is higher food intake once the reflux symptoms are relieved. Lifestyle modifications such as proper diet and exercise can help to prevent weight gain.

Can I take Yees for a long term?

Yees is usually prescribed for short term use only. However, if need arises, such as for treating peptic ulcer disease and Zollinger Ellison syndrome (ZES), Yees may be prescribed for a long term duration as well. Long term use may carry an increased risk for side effects and must be discussed with the doctor. Please use Yees as advised by your doctor and under their supervision.

Can I take Yees with ranitidine?

Yes, Yees can be taken with ranitidine. According to research reports, there are no significant interactions seen between Yees and ranitidine. However, you must take them together only if prescribed by the doctor.

Can I take Yees with domperidone?

Yes, Yees can be safely taken with domperidone as no harmful effects have been reported clinically. A fixed-dose combination of these two medicines is also available. Domperidone works by increasing the gut motility and Yees decreases the acid production in the stomach. So, this combination is very effective in the treatment of reflux esophagitis associated with acidity, heartburn, intestinal and stomach ulcers.

Is Yees safe to use?

Yes, Yees is relatively safe to use. Most of the people who take Yees do not get a side effect. It is advised to be taken as directed by the doctor for maximum benefit.

Can I take alcohol with Yees?

No, alcohol intake is not advised with Yees. Alcohol itself does not affect the working of Yees, but it can increase the acid production. This may further cause worsening of your symptoms

Can I take antacids along with Yees?

Yes, you can take antacids along with Yees. Take it 2 hours before or after you take Yees.

Can I stop taking Yees if I feel better?

If you have been taking Yees for a long time, stopping it abruptly may lead to increased acid production, thereby worsening your symptoms. Therefore, you must discuss any dose changes or if you wish to come off Yees.
