If it feels tense or inflated, you could be allergic to lactose. I am, and my stomach inflates whenever I eat or drink something containing lactose, sometimes so bad it looks as though I'm 4 months pregnant. Go check that out?

And for how long have you taken this medication? Maybe it needs a while to get started? If nothing happens, you should talk to your doctor again.

Good luck!
