Title: pentox + fasting
Post by: pey ron on April 18, 2021, 02:55:51 AM
Usually if I take pentox on an empty stomach it gives me a lot of GERD (heartburn).

I would like to go on a multi-day fasting. What measures can I take when I ingest the pentox to make sure I don't get heartburn?

thanks!

When I was able to take pentoxi I also had a lot of gastric problems while on an empty stomach. I found that if I would take it with my aloe vera juice in the morning it was a lot more tolerable.

Fortunately I didn't have any problems like these. I even took Pentox 3x day even while 24h fasting. Have you started taking the medicine recently? Maybe it is something your body can get used to it.

But recently I have been waking up once or even twice in the middle of the night without reason. I don't take too long to resume sleeping, but this has been quite annoying. Is this some sort of side effect of pentox, I wonder?

aloe supplements have been banned in Europe because of purported carcinogenicity :(

  That is sad because aloe has completely eliminated my digestion issues.

Honestly I do not know how you'd get around this. When I take pentox on an empty stomach the nausea is horrible.

I just don't take it when I fast.

If I absolutely had to take it when I fast, I guess I would try things like quartering the pills and taking them every 3 hours instead of 1 whole every 12 hours. Not sure what you'd do while asleep though.

When I first began taking Pentox it was on an empty stomach and it made me dizzy. I take it with food.
