Dr. Shen Yonghua
Medication for acid reflux associated with chronic gastritis should be selected based on the severity of the condition and whether the patient has any known drug allergies. Under a physician’s guidance, medications such as omeprazole, rabeprazole, and domperidone tablets may be prescribed to reduce gastric acid production and secretion. Patients with chronic gastritis must avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, maintain regular sleep-wake habits, and refrain from consuming raw, cold, or spicy/irritating foods.
