Mild Gastritis
Im experiencing gastritis like symptoms after coming from a family wedding where I consumed too much oily food and alcohol-
Slight pain around stomach lining, sharp pain was there only first day when symptoms started. Pain has been there for a week now. No acidity, heartburn or nausea.
Someone recommended the following-
Sucral-O 1tsf thrice daily (empty stomach) for 5 days
Cap Nexpro RD 1 before breakfast for 5 days
Do I need to take nexpro if there aren't any gerd symptoms like acidity, heartburn?

Start with Sucral-O alone for 5 days. Only add Nexpro RD if acid reflux symptoms develop.
This stepped approach prevents unnecessary medication while ensuring adequate treatment of the presenting symptoms...
