For gastric ptosis, medications that aid digestion may be taken, such as compound azetidine amide, compound digestive enzymes, trypsin tablets, lactase, and multienzyme tablets. Gastrointestinal prokinetic agents such as domperidone, cisapride, and trimebutine maleate may also be used. If you have abdominal pain, spasmolytic and analgesic drugs such as phenylpropanolol and pinaverium bromide can be used to relieve spasms and pain.
