Patient's question:
Doctor, I had a detailed endoscopy examination for non-atrophic gastritis. The doctor prescribed Weiyang'an capsules. I saw that this medicine is for treating atrophic gastritis. Can I take it? Is it suitable for my condition? What are the symptoms of non-atrophic gastritis?Doctor's answer:
It is chronic gastritis -- non-atrophic gastritis, and the onset is related to the long-term neglect and misdiagnosis of chronic stomach problems. The specific causes are related to irregular eating habits, excessive hunger or fullness, indulgence in spicy foods, drug abuse, and consumption of cold, hard foods, which harm the stomach and cause stagnation in the spleen and stomach, as well as excessive stomach acid. It is also related to prolonged emotional instability, anxiety, tension, irritability, and restlessness, leading to excessive stomach acid secretion. The medications you mentioned are not very suitable for your condition. It is recommended to take Weikangling, Mading, and Shugan Jianwei pills together for comprehensive treatment. Avoid greasy, fishy, and spicy foods, regulate your emotions, and maintain a relaxed lifestyle. Comprehensive treatment is advised.
