Patients with gastric ulcers can generally drink milk powder. It not only provides necessary nutrients and enhances immunity, but also does not irritate the gastrointestinal tract or worsen the condition. It is recommended to consume 200–300 ml of milk powder daily, without exceeding this amount, and patients should quit unhealthy habits such as smoking and drinking alcohol. Additionally, patients may use medications such as omeprazole and hydrotalcite for treatment.
