AnswerStomach ulcer is really something uncomfortable. To help you deal with this disagrement, experts suggest the following advice:
The treatment is mainly based on the eradication of H. pylori, which is responsible for 80% of ulcer cases. The treatment also aims to decrease gastric acidity. In such cases, you must act with a combination of several drugs like one or more antibiotics (tetracycline, claritrhomycine, amoxicillin, metronidazole), combined with an inhibitor of acid secretion (lansoprazole, omeprazole, ranitidine) and a cytoprotective agent (bismuth subsalicylate ). In the absence of H. pylori treatment is similar, except antibiotics.
It is also important to stop smoking, reduce alcohol consumption and avoid foods that cause symptoms. Among food that causes gastric ulcer you'll find coffee, tea, hot chocolate, tomatoes, chili , hot pepper and mustard.
