Take Xifaxan exactly as your doctor has told you. Do not reduce the dose of the drug or change the time of use. Failure to follow the recommendations of the gastroenterologist may cause the ineffectiveness of the prescribed therapy. If your stomach hurts after painkillers, you should consult your doctor. During the visit, please mention all the medicines and dietary supplements used, which will allow you to choose a safe and effective therapy. If you do not have the opportunity to visit stationary, I encourage you to use the teleadvice offered, m.in. by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja I also encourage you to report the occurrence of an adverse reaction, which is abdominal pain, after using painkillers. Reporting adverse reactions allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane I encourage you to read additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/wzdecia https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-przeciwbolowe-stosowac https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-bac-sie-dzialan-niepozadanych-lekow I enclose a link to check availability of Xifaxan and reservations at the pharmacy of your choice: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/84652/xifaxan-tabletki-powlekane/apteki
