Zelnorm info...       02/26/04 03:46 PM Edit Reply Quote BetsyZG Reged: 01/19/04 Posts: 7 Loc: Virginia Sorry! It descriminates! It is only indicated for women but that is probably because they only included women in the clinical trials. (Our fda is very picky about that...)That is my guess... I would not be surprised if your doc gives it to you though. I would guess it would be perfectly fine for men. It supposedly works on seretonin receptors inthe lower GI.and some. Certainly we would be the same with that. The peppermint supplements I read about would actually pass through the stomach and probably upper GI intact....no pepp. would be released. So it would likely not effect your GERD (my dad has that...he even tilts his bed up) I am not into tea tastes...I have had peppermint tea and I didn't care for it. Ask your doc about Gas X too...although I have found it takes a while to work (sometimes I think the pains can be severe gas) Hang in there... Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
