Hi,Dear,Thanks for the query to HCM.
Based on the study and review of the facts of your query and of your patient profile,though you don't have H.Pylori Bacteria,I would need more information,to explaint and understand as to Why your doctor advised 30 days treatment with Sucrafil Syr and Pantacid Tab.
Please update Me on-
What were the complaints you had for which You were given these drugs?
Whether OGD scopy with Biopsy was done before this?
Since how long the complaints of Acid reflux with Stomach pain were there?
Any history of excess of alcohol,spicy diet,non-veg overindulgence,excess tea or coffee/ Over-indulgence in Street or Hotel food frequency?
History of black stool was there with You?
Await above details from you soon,to be replied in your next session.
My Impression-
Based on the available information-following are the reasons in your case for prolonged treatment of 30 days time-
The treatment period depends on the severity and chronicity of complaints of esophagitis.
If any of the above causal factors are very chronic,possibility of time period for completer relapse may take more than 2 mths in some cases.
I would reply after getting the above information from you,in next session.
Await above details from you soon,to be replied in your next session.
