Update Date: 2024-07-19 Source: Network

Patients with gastric ulcer can be treated with proton pump inhibitors, H2 receptor blockers and other anti-acid drugs under the guidance of doctors. In addition, patients can also take gastric mucosa protective drugs and drugs to promote gastrointestinal motility as prescribed by doctors.

I. Anti-acid Drugs

1. Proton Pump Inhibitors: Commonly used drugs include Omeprazole Enteric-coated Capsules, Rabeprazole Sodium Enteric-coated Tablets, etc. These drugs can specifically act on the proton pump subunit of gastric mucosal parietal cells to inhibit gastric acid secretion, thus achieving therapeutic effects;

2. H2 Receptor Blockers: Such as Famotidine Tablets, Ranitidine Hydrochloride Capsules, etc. These drugs can bind to histamine H2 receptors on gastric parietal cells, reducing gastric acid secretion and achieving therapeutic purposes.

II. Gastric Mucosa Protective Drugs

Commonly used drugs are Sucralfate Suspension Gel, Bismuth Potassium Citrate Granules, etc. These drugs will form a thin film after entering the body and attach to the surface of the gastric mucosa, protecting the gastric mucosa and avoiding further stimulation of the damaged area by gastric acid, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.

III. Drugs to Promote Gastrointestinal Motility

For patients with symptoms of indigestion, drugs that promote gastrointestinal motility can also be used under the guidance of doctors to improve discomfort, such as Jianwei Xiaoshi Tablets, Lactulose Oral Solution, etc.

In addition to the above drugs, if Helicobacter pylori infection occurs, patients need to go to the hospital promptly and choose quadruple therapy under the guidance of doctors for radical treatment, namely, two antibiotics plus a proton pump inhibitor and a bismuth agent. The antibiotics include Amoxicillin Capsules, Clarithromycin Capsules, Levofloxacin Tablets, Metronidazole Tablets, etc. Proton pump inhibitors can be Lansoprazole Enteric-coated Tablets, Pantoprazole Sodium Enteric-coated Tablets, etc. Bismuth agents are usually Bismuth Potassium Citrate Tablets or Colloidal Bismuth Pectin Capsules, etc.
