Pan Gastritis

4 years back after endoscopy doctor suggested me esogress and gaviscon syrup for 15 days due to Pan Gastritis and suggested me some lifestyle changes along with reduction in weight. I have reduced weight now my weight is 54 kgs did lifestyle changes as well but unable to stop the medication. Still on daily basis I have to take one pantraprazole in the morning to avoid heaviness, indigestion, reflux, chest pain and bloating.

Try cheating. Use alternate day Pantoprazole. U might be dependant on it. In case u have trouble lowering your dose manage the symptoms by gaviscon only. This is provided tfat u r leading a really healthy life.
