Hi,

The medicine you are not taking for arthritis I.e. arthrotec commonly causes stomach upset & burning sensation in stomach too.

You can take ANTACIDS along with it to prevent stomach upset .

Consult your doctor with suggestion of antacids taking with arthrotec.

Wish you speedy recovery!

Thanks & Regards
