How long does steroid induced gastritis take to go away completed? told i had it days ago. put on prilosec and zantac. how do they help my gastritis?

Stomach acid: Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach, which damages the acid barrier. Prilosec and Zantac are both medications that block stomach acid production, which gives your stomach a chance to heal. Many factors can affect how long it will take to heal. It's important to stay on acid-blocking medications until healed.
