Flatulent Medication?

[macmember]

I hope that no one will mind me discussing the other gas. My son has always had extreme flatulance problems. It has a quite a bad odor as well. He has tried every otc gas medication with no luck. Changing his diet has not done any good ie: dairy/protein/carbs etc. Can anyone tell me a remedy that does not cost too much money monthly? I went to the Health Food store and the meds they have to offer would cost him about $30. per month and he can not afford that at this time.
Thanks

If he hasn't tried it, some people have success with a product called Beano. Or he may be lactose intolerant ...did he try lactose free milk or use Lactaid tablet when eating dairy products?

Yes he has tried all of the above....I wish it would have worked. Let me know if you can think of anything else.

How about Citrucel. It's technically a bulk laxitive (nonhabit forming) and it tends to eliminate intestinal gas....it keeps you regular and is not only for constipation.
