Hello!
Black stool can often be associated with medications like Bistas 120 (commonly containing bismuth subsalicylate), as it can lead to harmless darkening of the stool. However, it’s essential to differentiate between medication-induced changes and potential gastrointestinal bleeding, which can also cause black stool.
As you have gastritis and are H. pylori positive, it is crucial to ensure the treatment plan is comprehensive and effectively addresses your symptoms while eliminating the infection. Proper diagnosis and follow-up are key to preventing complications.
I recommend scheduling a private consultation with me for a thorough evaluation, personalized advice, and to discuss your treatment options in detail. You can reach me directly at eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two.
