Patient's question:
Because I didn't eat dinner well when I was young, I now have gastritis, often feel stomach pain, and can't eat much. I want to buy medicine myself to treat it at the pharmacy, but I don't know which medicine is best for treating gastritis.Doctor's answer:
Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach, which is caused by long-term consumption of many spicy foods that affect the stomach. Therefore, during treatment, it is necessary to first completely eliminate the inflammation. Oral antibiotics such as cephalosporins can be used. At the same time, medications that protect the gastric mucosa are also needed, such as commonly used sucralfate and aluminum hydroxide gel. These are medications that protect the gastric mucosa and can reduce damage to the stomach lining, as well as alleviate pain.
