Sucrafil is to be taken for 8 to 12 weeks, as that much time is needed for ulcer to heal. You will have to meet your doctor to assess clinically and endoscopically before discontinuing the medicine. If you don't have any other comorbidities like kidney issue etc usually no major side effects. Still you have to meet doctor before continuing further.
