My gastroenterologist had advised sompraz 40 mg and I am having this from past one year in the morning and from past three months every alternate day. But still my gastric problem hasn't solved. My question is using sompraz or esomac 40 for longer periods has any complications? And also which is best gastric tablet without any side effects or complications which can be used over longer period. Pl advise

Hi as symptoms are suggestive of gastritis. Need to follow some lifestyle changes. Take food timely. Avoid cabbage, capsicum, citrus fruits ( for a while). Don't drink water with food, take after 40 min. as much as needed thereafter. Don't lie down immediately after food. Finish night meal by 8.30 pm maximum. Go to bed after minimum 1 hour after dinner. Always keep stomach 1/4 th empty.Divide meal into 5-6 times a day. Avoid the particular food, which is being observed to cause bloating, fullness, upper abdominal pain/ discomfort, reflux symptoms etc.
