💊 OTC at Rx Drugs sa Sakit ng Tiyan
Symptom relief ang trabaho ng mga gamot. Kung umuulit ang sakit, kailangan tuklasin ang cause (gastritis, GERD, IBS, gallstones) sa Internal Medicine o Gastroenterology.
- Buscopan 10 mg (Hyoscine): P5-12/tab OTC. 1-2 tabs TID para sa cramping at spasm (kabag, gut spasm, biliary colic, dysmenorrhea).
- Hyoscimax 10 mg: P5-10/tab. Generic Hyoscine, same indication, mas mura.
- Maalox / Kremil-S: P5-15/tab chewable. PRN para sa heartburn at acid reflux. Hindi para sa chronic use.
- Omeprazole 20 mg (PPI): P10-20/tab. 1 tab OD, 30 min bago kumain. Para sa GERD, gastritis, peptic ulcer. 4-8 weeks course.
- Famotidine 20-40 mg (Pepcid, H2 blocker): P10-25/tab. Alternative sa PPI, less acid-suppressing pero mas mabilis ang onset.
- Dolfenal / Ponstan 500 mg (Mefenamic): P8-15/tab. Para sa menstrual cramps at mild inflammatory pain. Iwasan sa empty stomach, may gastritis risk.
🍽️ Home Management + Diet Triggers
Lifestyle ang main driver sa karamihan ng adult abdominal pain. Acid-related at IBS-related cases respond well sa dietary modification.
- Hydration + warm compress: 8+ glasses tubig per day. Mainit na compress sa tiyan ay nakakapag-relax ng smooth muscle, pampakalma ng cramping.
- BRAT diet sa post-GI bug: Banana, Rice, Apple sauce, Toast. Easy-to-digest carbohydrates habang nag-rerecover ang gut.
- Iwasan ang acid triggers (GERD): kape, alcohol, citrus, tomato, spicy, fatty, chocolate, mint. Late-night eating din ay common trigger.
- Iwasan ang NSAID overuse: Mefenamic, ibuprofen, naproxen kapag empty stomach ay common gastritis trigger. Kumain muna bago uminom.
- FODMAP awareness sa IBS: Onion, garlic, beans, dairy (lactose), wheat, certain fruits. Identify ang personal triggers sa 2-week elimination.
- Probiotics + fiber sa chronic dyspepsia: Yakult, Yoghurt, oatmeal. Pampaganda ng gut flora, pampaganda ng bowel regularity.
Cause ng Sakit ng Tiyan → Tamang Specialist

| Gallstones (biliary colic) | RUQ pain after fatty meals, nausea, sometimes radiates to right shoulder | Gastroenterology + ultrasound |
| IBS | Cramping + bloating + bowel pattern change (diarrhea o constipation o both) | Gastroenterology; lifestyle + FODMAP |
| Acute appendicitis | Pain starts periumbilical, migrates to RLQ; fever, nausea | ER AGAD. Surgery referral. |

Location matters: RUQ (gallbladder, liver), epigastric (stomach, pancreas, heart), RLQ (appendix, ovary, kidney stone), LLQ (diverticulitis, ovary), suprapubic (bladder, uterus), generalized (peritonitis, gastroenteritis). Sabihin sa doctor ang exact location, timing relative to meals, at radiation pattern.

Tips para sa Sakit ng Tiyan Prevention + Recovery
Kumain muna bago NSAID
Mefenamic, ibuprofen, naproxen sa empty stomach ay common gastritis trigger. Always take with food o milk.
3-hour gap bago matulog

Identify FODMAP triggers
Onion, garlic, beans, dairy, wheat ay common IBS triggers. 2-week elimination test pampakilala sa personal triggers.
Hydration + fiber sa tibi
25-30g fiber/day + 8 glasses tubig. Oatmeal, fruits, vegetables. Fiber supplement (Fybogel) PRN.
Iwasan ang chronic antacid abuse
Kremil-S araw-araw ay sign na may underlying GERD o gastritis na kailangan ng workup. Magpa-IM kung daily-dependent na.

Anxiety at sleep deprivation ay common dyspepsia triggers via gut-brain axis. Sleep hygiene at stress management critical.
🚨 ER Agad: Surgical at Critical Red Flags
Mga Karaniwang Tanong
Ano ang pinakamabilis na gamot sa sakit ng tiyan?
Para sa cramping at spasm (kabag, dysmenorrhea, gut spasm), ang Buscopan (Hyoscine 10mg, P5-12/tab) ang pinaka-mabilis at OTC. 1 tab TID. Para sa post-meal burning o acid (gastritis, GERD), Maalox/Kremil-S antacid (P5-15/tab) o Omeprazole 20mg PPI 30 min bago kumain. Para sa mefenamic-responsive na pain, Dolfenal 500mg. Hindi self-medicate kung may dugo sa suka o dumi, severe RLQ, o rigid abdomen. ER agad.
Bakit umuulit ang sakit ng tiyan ko?
Common adult causes: gastritis o peptic ulcer (NSAID overuse, H. pylori, alcohol), GERD, IBS, gallstones (RUQ post-fatty meals), chronic constipation, lactose intolerance, o stress-related dyspepsia. Recurring tiyan pain na nag-i-interfere sa daily life ay kailangan ng Internal Medicine o Gastroenterology workup. Pwedeng kailangan ng H. pylori test, endoscopy, o ultrasound.
Kelan dapat mag-ER para sa sakit ng tiyan?
ER agad kung: severe sudden-onset pain; pain migrating sa RLQ (appendicitis); rigid abdomen (perforation); blood sa suka (hematemesis) o sa dumi (melena/hematochezia); severe pain + fever (peritonitis); jaundice + RUQ pain (cholangitis); pregnancy + abdominal pain (ectopic); o pain + collapse (AAA). Hindi maghintay para sa pain reliever effect kapag may red flags.
Buscopan vs Hyoscimax vs Dolfenal: alin para sa anong tiyan?
Buscopan at Hyoscimax ay parehong Hyoscine N-butylbromide (10mg/tab), antispasmodic, kaya effective para sa cramping pain. Dolfenal (Mefenamic 500mg) ay NSAID, para sa inflammatory at menstrual pain pero pwedeng mag-trigger ng gastritis kapag empty stomach. Para sa pure GI cramping, Buscopan; para sa menstrual cramps o muscle pain, Dolfenal. Para sa acid burning, antacid o PPI ang sagot.
Recurring na Sakit ng Tiyan?
Hindi natural ang chronic abdominal pain. Magpa-konsulta sa Internal Medicine o Gastroenterology sa NowServing para sa proper workup (H. pylori, endoscopy, ultrasound). Pwedeng kailangan ng targeted treatment, hindi PRN antacid lang.
