Any disease, including gastritis, requires immediate treatment. As a rule, several types of therapy are used for this: medication, non-traditional and, of course, diet. Experts believe that the basis for treatment should be a variety of tablets from ulcers and gastritis. In second place is the importance of diet, because any disease of the gastrointestinal tract is caused by malfunctions in the diet.
Before considering the list of drugs in more detail, it is worth to find out what signs and symptoms may indicate the presence of the disease, and also to understand what is gastritis? Treatment, tablets in which will effectively fight not only with the symptoms, but also with the cause of their appearance, we will also try to consider in detail.
What is gastritis: the types, symptoms and signs of
Gastritis refers to inflammatory diseases. The mucous membrane of the stomach affects this disease. Symptoms, which can be used to judge the onset of exacerbation of this disease, in most cases are similar to the usual disorder due to malnutrition. A sick person may be troubled by heartburn, nausea and even vomiting. It is at the initial stage of the disease and you need to start taking pills from gastritis.
There are two types of this disease: inflammation of the mucosa against a background of low acidity in the stomach and an inflammatory process that occurs against a background of increased secretion of gastric juice. Both of these cases require a special approach to the selection of drugs, and tablets from stomach gastritis in both cases will be different.
Do not hope that pharmacists have invented a universal drug for treating two kinds of gastritis. Therefore, in any case, you have to select a medicine that will really help get rid of the disease. As a rule, the patient himself can not reliably determine if his acidity is increased or decreased. Therefore, to choose tablets from gastritis is necessary together with the gastroenterologist.
The main groups of drugs for gastritis
Any kind of inflammation of the gastric mucosa causes a lot of unpleasant symptoms, which fight against certain drugs. When gastritis, usually appointed tablets from different groups. First of all, they are antiemetic tablets and diarrhea remedies( Motilium, Polyphepan, and others).Also, specialists take into account the fact that gastritis often proceeds painfully because of constantly arising spasms. Such tablets as "No-shpa", "Drotaverin" and "Papaverin" will help to remove them. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for gastritis should not be taken, since they adversely affect the mucosa.
In addition, carminative drugs( Espumizan), enzyme preparations( Mezim, Pancreatin), antimicrobials( Ampicillin, Sulgin, Pylobakt tablets and others) can be recommended.
We remind that all the above-mentioned tablets against gastritis help only if their reception is coordinated with the attending physician, who knows the state of the patient's stomach.
Drugs for gastritis with low acidity
Insufficient amount of gastric juice on the background of the inflammatory process on its mucous membrane can cause great problems with digestion and assimilation of tablets in particular. How in this case to struggle with such disease as a gastritis? Treatment, tablets in which can not be assimilated, should be accompanied by the reception of synthetic or natural gastric juice. Take it every day for the whole treatment.
The set of medicines for oral administration with such a form of gastritis includes the above drugs, which are selected by a specialist. He will tell you what doses of medication and the scheme of their reception are suitable for a particular patient.
Drugs for gastritis with high acidity
With increased secretion of gastric juice, neutralization of excess acid in the stomach is required, in itself it can disrupt the integrity of the mucosa. For this, drugs from the group of antacids are used. Most often gastroenterologists recommend taking pills "Rennie", "Ranitidin", "Vikalin", "Nizatidin" and "Milanta".In complex cases, if the acid neutralizers do not cope with the function assigned to them, it may be necessary to take acid blockers, which include Atropine.
In addition, gastritis with increased secretion is treated with drugs that increase the stability of the gastric mucosa to hydrochloric acid. As a rule, they contain substances that block receptors responsible for the production of gastric juice.
What else can you treat gastritis
In addition to tableted dosage forms, specialists often recommend patients to take various pasty medicines: gels, emulsions and so on. In addition to anti-inflammatory and antacid effects, such dosage forms contain substances that envelop the gastric mucosa. In their role can also act as natural jelly and mucous porridge.
Drugs, including tablets against gastritis, must be taken until they are canceled by the doctor. Gastoenterologists in this regard have a peculiar sign: gastritis is treated exactly as much as it was "earned."Therefore, with the easing of symptoms, do not rush to stop treatment. It is better to consult your doctor for advice.
