Patient's question:
The results of the detailed gastroscopy examination are as follows: 1. Gastric fundus ulcer; 2. Chronic superficial gastritis. I have hepatitis B, and my ASP is positive with a quantification of 30. I've heard that stomach medicine can have significant side effects on the liver. How should I take the medication?Doctor's answer:
First, let me tell you that the decomposition and metabolism of all medications must pass through the liver. Therefore, taking stomach medicine will definitely have an impact on the liver. I don't know the severity of your stomach ulcer, but hepatitis B is a very difficult chronic disease to self-heal. You can only suppress it. If the stomach ulcer is not suppressed well, there may be a risk of perforation and peeling. So even though it affects the liver, we should still use medication to treat the stomach ulcer, just minimizing the harm as much as possible. Many medications with fewer side effects on the liver should be chosen.
