Functional dyspepsia and its treatment methods

Abstract

Functional dyspepsia (FD) is one of the dysregulatory lesions of the upper digestive tract. This syndrome has fairly well-defined clinical manifestations that include borderline psychopathological disorders. Its diagnosis becomes a method for ruling out organic gastrointestinal and mental illnesses. Treatment for FD is complex and includes a behavioral component, prokinetics, myotropic spasmolytics, antisecretory drugs, and tricyclic antidepressants. The efficiency of therapy directly depends on a physician's ability to choose an individualized regimen.
