Summary

This trial tests whether a capsule called Galeo (dihydroxydibutylether) can ease the bloating, fullness, and nausea that some people feel after eating, a condition known as postprandial distress syndrome. About 226 adults with this condition will take either Galeo or a placebo for 4 weeks. Researchers will compare symptom changes to see if Galeo offers real relief.
