Which pills are used to treat or relieve gastritis? Anonymous customer's question

Pharmacist's answer:

Different medications can be used to treat gastritis symptoms depending on the cause and severity of the condition. Here are some common medications used to treat gastritis:

• Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs): These medications reduce stomach acid secretion, help treat stomach and duodenal ulcers, and relieve gastritis symptoms such as heartburn, stomach pain, and nausea.

• Antacids are medications that neutralize stomach acid and often help relieve symptoms such as heartburn, stomach pain, and bloating.

• H₂ receptor blockers: These drugs reduce stomach acid secretion by blocking the action of histamine, which stimulates acid secretion. They can treat gastritis and other digestive problems such as reflux disease.

• Prokinetics: These drugs stimulate the motility of the digestive tract and can help overcome symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and feelings of fullness.

• Antibiotics: If gastritis is caused by an infection with Helicobacter Pylori bacteria, the doctor may prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection and prevent further damage to the stomach lining.

• Antispasmodics: These medications can help relieve stomach cramps and pain caused by gastritis.

It is essential to know that the choice of medication depends on the individual case of gastritis and may differ between individuals. Before using any medication, consult your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment. In addition, it is necessary to consider the possible side effects and contraindications of each drug and follow the doctor's or pharmacist's instructions.
