Good alternatives for upset tummy?

Question

What are some good alternatives for an upset tummy? I take a perscription med with a side effect of upset stomach, and with that you cant take anything such as Pepto, etc. I take it twice a day so Im pretty much ALWAYS nauseated.
What are some things I could eat/drink/whatever to get me thru my day?

Ah yes thanks guys. No alternatives to the med, all forms cause nausea, and I cant do any dairy and I dont drink soda, lol, but I just might try the gingerale!

The best natural things for upset stomachs are Ginger, Peppermint Oil, and Aloe Vera.

If you are taking it as often as twice a day, you may want to talk with a doctor to find out what's causing it.... you may be able to take some other natural product that can help the problem that's causing the upset in the first place. E-mail me if you'd like more info (as I'm sure I'd need more input)

I think you need to treat herbal specialist - Korean doctor!

I show you two case for nausea as follows.

Case 1

Nausea in Pregnancy

Mrs. T. O : female
English teacher in Elementary school, Seoul
eye color: blue
Nationality; Canada
age: 34

1. Chief complaints
Extreme nausea and vomiting for several weeks of pregnancy
The peace could not last over 30 minutes.

2. Diagnosis
Humidity and heat due to the pregnancy

3. Pathology
Pregnancy requires high level of energy production and lots of fluid.
But over-heat and over-humidity could interfere digestion . Over-heat exausts "ki" and over-humidity obstruct flowing "ki"
So, she experienced such symptoms.

4. Prescription
To make the body over heated cool and to harmonize the humidity of digestional organs.

She had never taken herbal treatment before and seemed to be afraid of first experience. So I suggested to take ready-made herbal packs provided by a pharmaceutical company. She had taken the pack to swallow for over 30 minutes for being afraid of new nausea and vomiting.
After great adventure, she said she couldn't feel any sign of vomiting and went back peacefully. The next day, she visited the clinic again and requested to give same prescription as before.
She really looked delightful just as something had happened never before.

Case 2

Chronical stomach pain

Above means he is constitutionally weak for hepatitis virus and easy to get heated on digestional organs.

Present status: The heat on upper abdominal makes the patient to drink cold water and cold foods and such as this habit accelerate the heat production on upper abdominal - this means inflammation in digestional organs.

4. Pathology
Heat calls for cold and cold calls for heat. This accelerations have the body and the soul consume lots of bioenergy.
As the result, exhausted bioenergy cannot protect from outside vice and perform normal mechanism.

5. Prescription
-To help digest to decrease digestional burden

-To make the abdominal area cool for normal activity
The herbal composition in detail could not be disclosed.
