Are there small remedies for stomach acid?

There are no “small remedies” to treat hyperacidity, but standardized treatment under the guidance of a doctor. The hydrochloric acid secreted by the cells lining the stomach is called gastric acid, which helps in the digestion and absorption of food. Heartburn, acid reflux and other symptoms will occur when you have too much stomach acid. Common medications include acid suppressants, antacids, gastric mucosa protection medications, etc. There is no such thing as a “small prescription”, and the specific treatment plan should be chosen based on the cause of the disease and the individual’s physical condition. 1. Acid-suppressing drugs: commonly used proton pump inhibitors (PPI) such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, etc., as well as acid-suppressing H2-receptor antagonists such as famotidine, nizatidine, ranitidine, etc., which can inhibit the secretion of gastric acid and reduce the stimulation of the gastric mucosa by gastric acid. 2. Antacids: aluminum hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, magnesium aluminum carbonate, etc. These drugs can not regulate the secretion of gastric acid, but can directly neutralize the gastric acid, relieve discomfort. 3. Gastric mucous membrane protection drugs: excessive stomach acid may stimulate the gastric mucous membrane to produce discomfort, can use bismuth (such as bismuth potassium citrate, bismuth pectin, etc.), which can form a layer of protective film in the gastric mucous membrane, so that the gastric mucous membrane is not stimulated by gastric acid, food and so on. Excessive gastric acid can also cause gastritis, peptic ulcer and other diseases, so patients should consult a doctor in time, follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment, do not blindly believe in the “prescription”, so as not to delay the condition.
