What medication is effective for treating esophagitis?
Esophagitis belongs to the digestive system and has a high incidence rate in daily life. Its causes are partly related to unhealthy eating habits. If left untreated, this disease may lead to esophageal stenosis or esophageal perforation. So, what medications are effective for esophagitis?
1. Cisapride Tablets: The treatment of esophagitis mainly relies on Cisapride Tablets, Xiangsha Yangwei Pills, Rabeprazole Sodium Enteric-coated Capsules, Houtoujun Tablets, Sanjiu Weitai Capsules, Pancreatin Enteric-coated Capsules, Kuihua Weikangling Granules, and drugs that can enhance gastrointestinal motility.
2. Dopamine Antagonists: Dopamine antagonists can promote esophageal emptying and effectively increase tension. These drugs include Metoclopramide and Domperidone, taken at a dosage of 10-20 milligrams, 3-4 times a day, before sleeping or eating. However, excessive dosage may cause neurological disorders. Therefore, middle-aged and elderly people should pay attention to their lifestyle and take these drugs under the guidance of a doctor.
3. Aluminum Hydroxide Gel: It is mainly used for hyperacidity, gastric and duodenal ulcers, reflux esophagitis, and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Due to the combination of aluminum ions and intestinal phosphates, insoluble aluminum phosphate is excreted in feces. For uremic patients, taking large doses of aluminum hydroxide can reduce phosphate absorption and acidosis, but special attention should also be paid during treatment.
4. Cimetidine: It can inhibit gastric acid secretion and is alkaline, effectively alleviating gastric acid secretion and reducing the stimulation of food on the stomach, thus avoiding unnecessary effects due to chemical stimulation. In fact, it has many effects throughout the treatment process, but the correct method must be mastered. The occurrence of this disease, if not actively treated, will definitely cause serious harm and may also have a certain impact on personal health. This is something we must pay special attention to in life. Only by doing so can we bring better advantages.
