In a study from McMaster University, researchers there say the combination of anti-inflammatory drugs used to treat arthritis, and the drugs used to reduce the risk of ulcers *because* of the arthritis drugs may cause major problems.

They found the ulcer drugs may actually aggravate damage in the small intestines.

The use of probiotics is being looked at as a potential cure.
