Sulfur Burps?

Options
I just upped to 1.8 on Wed and today I have horrible sulfur burps, upset stomach, bit of diarrhea (but that can happen if I eat simple carbs).. Internet indicates possible gastroparesis (slow stomach emptying) which makes sense but this is miserable. Anyone else have similar problems?

    Gastroparesis is a big part of how this drug works by slowing down digestion. I'm sorry you ended up with yucky side effects. Maybe try Zantac or a Pepcid? I never had gas with this, just constipation. Best of luck!

    The only thing that seemed to help was peptobismol.

    I just bumped to 1.8 and have spent 2 nights with horrific sulfur burps and diaherrea. The first night I got got chills and vomited a ton as well.

    I talk to the doctor today. I may do another week of 1.2
