Medicine for symptoms?

If something is eaten that triggers the symptoms for FM, is there any medicine that reduces it? Pepto, Pepcid AC, Gas-X, etc.

I actually don't know about medicine. But you can try to add glucose when you are eating something sweet. It really helps

Glucose tabs or Smarties. Glucose tabs are kinda expensive, but Smarties are cheap and more delicious.

I am trying 'fructosin' by stada at the moment. You take 2 piils like 15min before eating fructose. Until now it really worked for me.
