been taking anti-inflammetories for a few weeks because i've knackered my back. and yes I really really should know better but don't always take them with food because I really don't do breakfast and my back is always vvv painful first thing. Now I've developed shocking indigestion. since yesterday - comes and goes.
no gaviscon/anti-indegestion remedies in the house.
ouch.
any other remedies?

Peptobismol is really great for coating the stomach and soothing it until it heals!!

Hulahoops?

definitely time to talk to doctor and get something proper to protect your tummy. my doctor gets very concerned when I get indigestion symptoms from my anti-inflammatories and I now have to take omeprazole when I'm on anti-inflams. Please talk to doctor.

how about trying the ibuprofen patches ? you can apply them to the area of your back that hurts and avoid nasty stomach pain at same time ,just an idea
