I have terrible stomach ache. I have been diagnosed with stomach ulcers for the past four years. I am presently on the following medicines Colspa135mg tds, pentatop-20 od & Isbagol. However, this medicine is not helping but my doctor says this is probably the best medicine and I will have no option but to continue with this. Can someone please help ?

Hello,
Eradication of the causative is important and simply taking medication is not useful. Get upper GI endoscopy done need to take biopsy okay. Avoid spicy food and alcohol. Avoid smoking, avoid stress-causing risk factors. Use tablet Nexpro L once a day before breakfast for one week. If symptoms not improved, please consult your gastroenterologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
