The following groups of medications are used to treat dyspepsia:

Diagnosis of Digestive Disorders at Top Ichilov Clinic
Dyspepsia is a complex term that encompasses various digestive disturbances arising from insufficient enzyme secretion or improper nutrition. Modern medicine identifies different types of digestive disorders, which are classified based on the predominant foods in the patient's diet, including fermentative, putrefactive, and fatty dyspepsia.
The diagnostic examinations used in the gastroenterology department of Top Ichilov Clinic are precise and help establish an accurate diagnosis. Patients arriving from CIS countries often do not have a precise diagnosis. In Israeli clinics, they undergo diagnostics and have the opportunity to select accurate and effective treatment.
For diagnosing dyspepsia in Israeli clinics, the following types of examinations are used:
- Fibrogastroscopy (used to examine the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum);
- Ultrasound;
- Electrogastrography;
- Examination of the gastrointestinal tract using radioactive isotopes;
- Gastroduodenal manometry to measure pressure during stomach wall contractions;
- X-ray examination;
- MRI;
- Blood test;
- Stool analysis.
