Question 3

hi sir
i have been suffering from gastritis for last 2 and a half months now. i am male 27 years of age. i was on pantaprazole , itopride hydrochlorid?

Accepted Answer

Gastritis: Did they check for H pylori ?  that can cause  and exacerbate gastritis and needs to be treated with antibiotics. Also may have food intolerances like dairy that exacerbate gastritis. Would try elimination of dairy for a week from you diet and see if there is a change. rarely conditions like Zolinger Ellison syndrome cause severe gastritis,- check gastrin level. f/u/ w/ Gastrointestinal doc

Question 4

Accepted Answer

No and yes: Rabenprazole is safe in pregnancy. It is a category B  which means it can be used in pregnancy without concern. Itopride on the other hand is a newer drug and therefore not much is known about it's effects in pregnancy. There are other drugs that should be used instead of itopride.

Accepted Answer

Depends main symptom: while gastritis can cause symptoms, would need to see if this is the main cause of YOUR symptoms, while considering many causes both of the stomach inflammation (e.g. rule out helicobacter infection, medications such as aspirin/ibuprofen, and even parasites if living in endemic areas, etc) as well as co-existing problems (gallstones, pancreatitis, etc) elsewhere. Happy to review case and consult.
