Follow your gastroenterologist's advice. Carafate&protonix should help heal a peptic gastric ulcer. However, vomiting is concerning and should be brought to the gastroenterologist's attention. Are you eating soft bland,nongreasy foods? Were you tested for h pylori. Be sure to avoid aspirin,advil & aleve type meds,excess caffeine & avoid alcohol entirely.
