What treats gastritis and ulcers. Treatment of folk remedies for diseases of the stomach

The stomach is an organ digestive system, located under the esophageal tube and having a volume of about 500 ml. From the inside, the walls of the stomach are lined with mucous membranes (epithelial) - a layer of epithelial cells that perform a protective function. When the mucous layer of the stomach becomes inflamed, the patient is diagnosed with gastritis. This disease in 90% of cases has infectious nature and develops when the mucous membranes are contaminated with spiral bacteria . Symptoms of infectious gastritis are quite specific. These can be abdominal pain (in the upper part), vomiting, nausea, stool disorders.

If the patient postpones going to the hospital, does not comply with the regimen prescribed by the doctor, independently corrects the medication regimen, signs of ulceration may appear on the surface of the mucous membranes. A stomach ulcer is a severe complication of gastritis, characterized by the appearance of local trophic defects under the influence of bile, of hydrochloric acid and proteolytic enzymes. The treatment of stomach pathologies requires not only adherence to special diet, but also applications medical methods. The following are the drugs for gastritis and stomach ulcers, as well as their detailed description, and the recommended scheme of use is given.

Antibiotics and antimicrobials for treatment infectious inflammation stomach are shown in 88-90% of cases. Gram-negative microorganisms are the main causative agent of the disease. resistant to many antibiotics, therefore, for the treatment of infectious gastritis, combined regimens consisting of 2-3 drugs are always used. The risk of developing an ulcer in the absence of timely therapy, especially if the patient does not comply with the principles diet food suffers from tobacco or alcohol addiction, in some cases can reach 98.9%. When choosing the right medicine the doctor takes into account the age of the patient, the degree of contamination of the mucous membranes with H. Pylori bacteria and the expected effectiveness of a particular drug group.

Combination of penicillins and macrolides

These antibiotics are included in the group of first-line drugs for the eradication of the infectious agent. First-line treatment is always supplemented with proton pump inhibitors, and Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin are used as the drugs of choice in most cases. "Amoxicillin" is a drug from the group of semi-synthetic penicillins, which has a wide range antibacterial activity and minimum list side effects(compared to other antibiotics). Take "Amoxicillin" and its analogues should be 2 times a day at a dosage of 500 mg. The duration of treatment should not be less than 10 days - shorter courses increase the likelihood of relapses. For children, a single dose of amoxicillin is calculated at the rate of 20 mg / kg.

"Amoxicillin" - indications for use

Table. Analogues of "Amoxicillin" and their cost.

Important! people with symptoms ulcer defects in the mucous and submucosal layer of the stomach, drugs without the addition of clavulanic acid should be selected (used in combination with amoxicillin to increase its effectiveness).

Of the macrolides, Clarithromycin is usually included in the treatment regimen. The drug has a rapid systemic absorption, the connection with the protein components of the plasma is more than 90%. It is necessary to take "Clarithromycin" for 2 weeks at a dosage of 250-500 mg 2 times a day. This antibiotic is contraindicated in pregnant women early dates gestation, lactating women, patients with various forms liver and kidney failure.

Combination of tetracyclines and metronidazole

"Tetracycline" and "Metronidazole" are second-line drugs, and their combination is used in the absence of the necessary effect from the use of first-line drugs of the Helicobacter pylori eradication protocol. Most often, metronidazole is prescribed in the form of tablets, but if the patient is being treated in a hospital, infusion therapy can be used, especially if the gastritis is complicated by an ulcerative mucosal defect. Metronidazole treatment regimen: 500 mg 2 times a day for 10 days. Drug analogues:

• tablets "Klion" (76 rubles);
• tablets "Flagil" (129 rubles).

"Tetracycline" and its analogues are prescribed for a period of 1 to 2 weeks. A single dosage is usually 100-200 mg. The medicine should be taken 2 times a day.

Means for the treatment of acid-dependent conditions of the stomach (PPI)

These are drugs that block the activity of digestive enzymes in the parietal cells of the stomach and stop the final stage of hydrochloric acid synthesis. They may be assigned to complex therapy ulcerative defects of the mucous membranes of the intestines and stomach (including peptic ulcer of unspecified localization and stress ulcers), gastritis and gastroesophageal reflux. Omeprazole is the drug of choice in most cases. Omeprazole capsules are rapidly absorbed and begin to act within an hour after ingestion, and the achieved effect persists throughout the day (in patients with peptic ulcer, this period may be less - up to 17 hours).

As part of the complex eradication of Helicobacter pylori, when using the first-line protocol, the drug is taken for 1 week at 20 mg 1-2 times a day. For treatment peptic ulcer stomach duration of therapy increases to 1-2 months (while maintaining the dosing regimen). During the period of exacerbation of gastritis and stomach ulcers, the drug is taken 1 capsule 1 time per day (in case of complicated course, the daily dosage can be increased to 40 mg) for 2-4 weeks.

Analogues of "Omeprazole":

• "Ultop";
• "Ortanol";
• "Omez";
• "Ulkozol";
• "Losek";
• "Demeprazol".

Note! Elderly patients (over 60 years of age) dosage adjustment is not required.

Increased acidity of the gastric environment: treatment

Increased secretion of hydrochloric acid is one of the main factors in the development of peptic ulcer. If the patient has already been diagnosed with local ulcers, hyperacidity gastric juice can provoke a recurrence of the disease and lead to perforation - the appearance of a through hole in the gastric wall and the evacuation of gastric contents into abdominal cavity. Ulcer perforation - dangerous complication peptic ulcer, which in 13% of cases is the cause of acute peritonitis (inflammation of the tissues of the peritoneum, which can be fatal).

Treatment of gastritis with hyperacidity always complex and should include a diet, gentle regimen and medication correction. To protect the mucous membranes from corrosive hydrochloric acid, the patient is prescribed antacids - drugs that neutralize hydrochloric acid, which have an enveloping and adsorbing effect. Medicines in this group are listed in the table below.

Table. Antacids with increased acidity of the gastrointestinal environment.

To suppress the synthesis of hydrochloric acid and prevent peptic ulcer, histamine receptor blockers are used, for example, Famotidine, Famosan, Kvamatel.

Reduced synthesis of hydrochloric acid: preparations

With gastritis with low acidity the basis of treatment are drugs from the group of antienzymes. The drug of choice for the treatment of adult patients most often becomes "Acidin-pepsin". This is a drug in the form of tablets that allows you to increase the acidity of gastric juice and the activity of proteolytic enzymes that provide digestive processes. The drug is shown as replacement therapy with atrophy of the glands of the stomach and achilia - a pathology in which there is no pepsin in the stomach, and hydrochloric acid is practically not synthesized.

You need to take the drug 2-4 times a day, 500 mg. The duration of treatment is determined by the dynamics of the therapy, tolerability and the overall clinical picture of the disease.

Of the digestive enzyme preparations, the patient can also be prescribed:

• "Pancreatin";
• "Festal";
• Creon.

Note! The listed medicines are used not only for the treatment of gastritis and stomach ulcers, but also for the correction of nutritional errors, but it is impossible to take drugs in this group without consulting a doctor.

Auxiliary treatment

Almost all treatment regimens for the treatment of gastritis and peptic ulcers include bismuth preparations. These are drugs that have a gastroprotective (protective) effect and increase the resistance of the mucous membranes of the stomach and intestines to the effects of hydrochloric acid, bile, proteolytic enzymes and bile salts. Bismuth preparations have low absorption, are excreted from the body along with feces. When a small amount of bismuth salts enters the bloodstream, the renal system is involved in the excretion process.

Bismuth preparations include the following drugs:

• Ulcavis tablets;
• tablets "De-nol";
• Escape tablets.

In acute infectious gastritis, accompanied by severe dyspepsia (stomach pain, nausea, intestinal spasms, bloating), as well as vomiting, the use of drugs containing metoclopramide (for example, Cerucal) is indicated. With severe vomiting, the drug is injected into a muscle or into a vein. If, against the background of gastritis, vomiting began in a child, the use of "Motilium" in the form of a syrup for children is allowed. The drug has a high cost (more than 1000 rubles), but this is the only drug that is approved for use in children under 6 years of age.

Analogues of "Motilium" for adults are: "Domperidone", "Motilak".

For pain in the abdomen caused by contraction of the gastric or intestinal walls, antispasmodics based on drotaverine or papaverine are necessarily included in the treatment regimen: Spazmonet, No-shpa, Papaverine, Papaverine hydrochloride, Drotaverine, Spazmol . Daily dosage Drotaverine for an adult is 120-240 mg, which must be divided into 2-3 doses. The duration of use depends on the intensity of pain and the general well-being of the patient and is usually from 5 to 14 days.

With severe vomiting, when the tablets are poorly absorbed, antispasmodics are best used in the form rectal suppositories("Papaverine hydrochloride"). Unless otherwise instructed by the doctor, they should be injected into the rectum 2 times a day after defecation.

Gastritis and stomach ulcers are diseases whose treatment should be supervised by a specialist. Self-medication can lead to serious consequences and complications, so any drugs can be taken only with the permission of the attending physician.

The stomach is important department digestive system, since the "further fate" of the internal organs depends on its work. Let's look inside for a moment to have an idea of ​​what we have to treat.

Food, once in the stomach, is processed by gastric juice. It is a mixture of mucus, enzymes and hydrochloric acid which is known to dissolve living tissue. Mucus, enveloping the walls of the stomach, protects it from self-devouring. With inflammation of the mucosa, the protective function weakens, and the person experiences discomfort.

Often rescued during an exacerbation. One of these remedies, which not only soothes pain and burning, but also heals, is milk.

Milk.

It is important to use it correctly. The temperature should be at room temperature, as too cold milk is not absorbed by the body. How does milk affect the stomach?

Flax seeds.

How to cure gastritis with folk remedies was known in antiquity. by the most known means for the treatment of the stomach at all times, was flax, or rather the seeds of this plant. About the usefulness of this plant, you can devote separate article. Flax seeds are a real storehouse of vitamins plant origin. They contain almost all known vitamins and useful chemical compounds, including fatty acid(Omega 3; 6; 9).

When brewing seeds, mucus is released, which is healing. Once in the stomach, it lubricates the inflamed walls with this mucus and has a healing effect.

A plant that requires no introduction, because of its healing properties known to everyone, even representatives traditional medicine, have long paid attention to the healing properties of aloe, and successfully use it in the form pharmaceutical preparations. For the treatment of the stomach, aloe juice has been used for hundreds of years. With increased acidity of gastric juice, treatment with aloe can be combined with potato juice, which was described at the beginning of the article.

But along with medicinal properties, the plant has a number of contraindications.

Treatment of gastritis with aloe juice.

Method 1.

Half an hour before each meal, take one teaspoon of aloe juice.

The course of treatment is one month. Erosions are healed, and inflammations are removed from the walls of the stomach.

Method 2.

In order to "calm down" gastritis, traditional medicine offers a way that many will like.

Sunflower seeds.

With exacerbations of gastritis, when there is a violation acid-base balance accompanied by nausea and heartburn, sunflower seeds always come to the rescue. The weakened and inflamed gastric mucosa cannot cope with the digestion of food on its own, resulting in stagnation of food. The use of seeds activates this process and eliminates unpleasant symptoms. Vitamin E, contained in seeds in large quantities, lowers acidity.

Note.

There is one condition, the seeds must be gnawed, and not used peeled. You can use only one handful of seeds per day, preferably after meals.

If the mucosa is damaged, erosion is formed - a wound directly to the wall of the stomach itself. This is an ulcer, which, in a neglected state, can present many “surprises” to its owner. For, traditional medicine suggests using sea buckthorn oil.

Sea ​​buckthorn.

Sea buckthorn is unique product gifted to us by nature. The oil obtained from sea buckthorn surpasses all other oils in its ability to heal wounds and relieve any inflammatory processes. This is an indispensable product that can be used to heal stomach ulcers.

A course of treatment lasting one month. During treatment, bitterness in the mouth may be felt, but this is not dangerous at the indicated dose.

Propolis.

Propolis is natural product which is produced by bees. Also in ancient egypt the priests knew about it medicinal properties. It kills microbes and bacteria, anesthetizes, relieves inflammation, improves immunity, heals ulcers and copes well with diseases of internal organs.

For treatment, you need propolis the size of a floor walnut. This amount of propolis should be dissolved in a glass of milk. To do this, you need to grind propolis, add it to milk and warm it up a little. Such milk should be drunk in the morning instead of breakfast.

Propolis tincture.

Sprouted wheat.

For treatment, six tablespoons of germinated wheat are needed. To do this, you need to take about a few handfuls of wheat and pour them onto a pre-prepared flat plate covered with cotton wool (cotton wool must first be moistened with water). Cover the plate with a damp cloth and leave for three days. Make sure that the wheat remains in a humid environment, if necessary, add water. When sprouts appear, wheat should be crushed with a blender. Six tablespoons of crushed wheat pour two tablespoons olive oil. Put everything in a glass jar and use until finished. Take one teaspoon in the morning on an empty stomach, after which there is no food for one hour.

There is another type of gastritis, which is very insidious in that it makes itself felt when the disease enters a severe stage. This is . The essence of the disease lies in the fact that healthy cells of the stomach die off, which can eventually lead to cancer. Providing assistance to the stomach are means that provide next exposure:

- food should not stay in the stomach for a long time, but move into the intestines as quickly as possible;

- need means similar to gastric juice;

- for the digestion of food, additional enzymes are needed;

The stomach needs vitamin B12 and folic acid.

What are folk remedies for atrophic gastritis? Here are a few resources that will help you complex treatment this type of gastritis.

Half glass fresh juice cabbage (white) slightly warm and take half an hour before meals.

Gastritis and ulcer are so often observed simultaneously in patients that there is even a term "ulcerative gastritis". In fact, ulcerative gastritis is two complementary diseases, and this combination is especially difficult.

Most often, the development of this disease can be observed in patients with a tendency to develop inflammatory diseases gastrointestinal tract. Examination reveals that patients have increased amount Helicobacter bacteria pylori in the gastrointestinal tract and relatively weak regenerative capabilities of the body.

In this article, we will talk in detail about what should be proper treatment this disease and whether folk remedies are effective in it. We will also look at the signs of gastritis and stomach ulcers, along the way answering the question of how to distinguish gastritis from an ulcer.

Modern medicine believes that the causes of gastritis and ulcers are exactly the same. Both diseases have in the mechanism of their development infectious causes. So for the vast majority of ulcers and gastritis, the bacterium H. Pylori is responsible.

Moreover, the causes of both diseases also lie in the plane of systematization of nutrition. Those people who eat mainly fatty and fried foods usually suffer from either an ulcer or gastritis, or have both diseases at once.

It should also be noted that both gastritis and ulcers have the same basic therapy. Both diseases are treated with antimicrobial and stimulant drugs (you can read more about and), and also require dietary adjustments. In fact, they even affect the same layer of the stomach (mucosa). The only difference is that with gastritis, a superficial lesion is observed, and with an ulcer, it is internal (deep).

The symptoms of the two diseases are similar, and even very specific. So the usual symptoms of an ulcer in the form of bleeding and acute pain can also be observed with gastritis (especially with).

Causes of gastritis and ulcers

Gastritis and ulcers in general have the same causes of development. In a sense, gastritis is a condition that precedes an ulcer, although even with long-term gastritis, the occurrence of an ulcer in the future is not at all necessary.

Gastritis and ulcers, although similar in symptoms, causes, course, and even complications, are still pathologies of different localization. If in most types of gastritis the mucosal lesion occurs in its upper layers, then the ulcer affects the deeper (submucosal) layer.

Moreover, with gastritis, the entire gastric mucosa is covered (if you do not take into account the specific focal gastritis), while with ulcerative lesion there is a local inflammatory process. Also, gastritis tends to manifest itself daily for all year round, while peptic ulcer disease is cyclical (remissions are replaced by exacerbations).

Pain with gastritis spilled over the entire upper abdomen, often it goes to the esophagus. At ulcer pathology the pain is often local (point), and the patient can easily tell the doctor at which point in the abdomen the problem area is located.

Symptoms of gastritis and ulcers

As mentioned earlier, the symptoms of these two pathologies are the same and in most cases, without invasive (penetrating) diagnosis, put accurate diagnosis impossible.

Symptoms of these diseases the following:

1. The occurrence of pain (both pulling and sharp) against the background of eating.
2. with the reflux of stomach contents into the oral cavity.
3. Unpleasant, and sometimes even putrid smell from the mouth, and bad taste in the mouth.
4. The presence of a small amount of blood in the stool (often there is a hidden stool that can only be detected by stool analysis).
5. Gastrointestinal motility disorders, manifested as diarrhea or constipation.
6. Decreased or, less commonly, increased appetite and changes in taste preferences.
7. Presence of a rack elevated temperature up to 37 degrees Celsius (this condition can last for weeks).
8. Heaviness or pain in the stomach area when taking horizontal position immediately after eating.
9. Frequent belching.
10. General malaise, weakness, lethargy, unwillingness to do any work.
11. Irradiation of pain from the abdomen to the limbs and, more often, to the lower back.

Antibiotics for ulcers

For both gastritis and peptic ulcer disease, to kill (or greatly reduce) H. pylori bacteria various antimicrobials are used.

Usually these are drugs of three groups of antibiotics:

1. Preparations based on Clarithromycin: Clacid, Claricid, Binoclar, and Clarexide.
2. Funds based on "Omeprazole": "Omez", "Ultop", "Promez", as well as "Zolser".
3. Preparations based on Amoxicillin: Amoxicar, Ecobol, and Amosin.

Usually, antimicrobial treatment of ulcers and gastritis is carried out not specifically with one type of antibiotic, but with a combination of several. In severe cases resort to simultaneous reception three groups of antibiotics at once, despite the fact that it is dangerous. But at severe course gastritis and ulcers, the benefits of such therapy far outweigh the harm.

At the same time, against the background of antimicrobial therapy, the patient's condition is constantly monitored. This is necessary in order to prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea and severe pseudomembranous colitis.

Diagnosis of ulcers and gastritis

Ulcerative gastritis is often complex in differential diagnosis, so the classic physical examination (palpation) of the patient is not enough.

Ulcerative gastritis is detected using the following instrumental and biochemical methods:

• classical FGDS (fibrogastroscopy);
• analysis of feces for occult blood and infection;
• biopsy of a piece of the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract (the material is taken during FGDS);
• blood chemistry;
• pH-metry;
• radiography using contrast agents(usually barium is used);
• in rare cases required ultrasound diagnostics stomach and duodenum.

Gastritis and stomach ulcer (video)

Drug treatment of ulcers and gastritis

Proper treatment of these diseases does not end at the appointment of some antimicrobial agents. The patient during treatment also appointed the following recommendations and medicines:

• lifestyle adjustments (complete cessation of smoking, a ban on alcoholic drinks, observance of the daily routine, exclusion from life of stress, and so on);
• diet (restriction on nutrition is generally the same for both gastritis and ulcers);
• means to enhance the regenerative capabilities of the body (vitamins "E" and "B1", derivatives of "Detralex" and "Methyluracil");
• medicines to relieve pain (usually antispasmodics based on "No-Shpa");
• drugs to stimulate the gastrointestinal system (Almagel, Motilium, Nizotidine);
• physiotherapy procedures;
• folk medicines;
• Spa treatment;
• upon reaching remission, prevention is prescribed with gastrointestinal stimulants and drugs that reduce the secretion of gastric acid.

Diet for ulcers and gastritis

To successfully treat ulcerative gastritis, it is necessary to adhere to a restrictive diet. The diet aims to reduce stress on gastrointestinal system and to exclude substances that are aggressive for the gastric mucosa and duodenal ulcer.

It is forbidden to eat various fatty and spicy dishes, smoked meats, fried foods, alcohol. It is also forbidden to eat sweets and bakery products(especially fresh!), acidic foods.

A diet of 80% should consist of fruits and vegetables, as well as juices, cereals, meat products (only rabbit and chicken) and, of course, water. ordinary water the patient during the diet should consume at least two liters per day.

Nutrition during the diet should be exclusively fractional, about 6-8 times a day. At the same time, food is allowed only in small portions, so as not to burden the gastrointestinal system.

After achieving remission of the disease, a light diet is prescribed for an unlimited period. Its goal is to prevent the recurrence of the disease.

Folk remedies for ulcers and gastritis

It is possible to treat ulcerative gastritis using folk remedies, although this is not suitable as an independent treatment. That is, in other words, folk remedies can be used as an extra, which enhances the overall effect of the treatment method, but by themselves they rarely help cure an ulcer or gastritis.

One of better ways to treat ulcers and gastritis is to use thyme with white wine. Despite the fact that alcohol is prohibited in these diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, white wine, along with thyme, loses its properties that irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa, and therefore is safe.

To prepare this remedy, mix two tablespoons of thyme in half a liter of white wine, and then let the mixture brew for a week in the refrigerator (but not in the freezer!). After a week, the mixture must be taken out, let it boil for 5-10 minutes and then strain. There is this infusion should be two teaspoons before meals three times a day.

To heal the mucosa and relieve inflammation, a recipe for sea buckthorn with honey is used. To prepare it, boil 2-3 tablespoons of sea buckthorn berries in one glass of water for about 10 minutes, then add 3 tablespoons of honey. Drinking this infusion is recommended for half a teaspoon once in the morning, exclusively on an empty stomach.

"Gastritis" is a general term, so to speak, a collective concept that includes a number of pathological changes in the stomach. The unifying factor of these pathologies is inflammation of the mucous membrane and deeper layers. The main cause of the disease is the causative agent Helicobacter pylori, which destroys the tissues lining the stomach. special shape- reflux gastritis, occurs due to frequent cases of movement of the contents of the duodenum 12 back into the stomach cavity.

Diagnosis of gastritis

Gastritis is classified by:

• the depth of the lesion inner surface stomach;
• the nature of the course of the disease (acute, chronic);
• acidity (gastritis with high and low acidity).

Main symptoms:

• pain in the epigastric region;
• heartburn, belching, nausea;
• heaviness in the stomach after eating.

Non-drug treatment of gastritis

Before starting treatment, it is necessary to undergo a diagnosis for exact definition forms and stages of this disease. Alternative treatment gastritis can be a good addition to the medical therapy prescribed by the attending physician. At the same time, it is absolutely necessary to follow the diet and nutrition rules for gastritis, namely: eat intermittently, in small portions, often, chew food well and do not eat cold or hot.

Treatment of gastritis with folk remedies is to relieve inflammation of the gastric mucosa and reduce acidity. And for the treatment of gastritis with low acidity, there are also special recipes, and some of them are presented in this article.

Popular folk remedies for gastritis

The most famous folk remedies for gastritis

Potato juice. One of the oldest ways to treat stomach diseases is to drink fresh potato juice on an empty stomach. Half of the effect is based on the alkaline reaction, so this method is excellent for the treatment of gastritis with high acidity. Other useful action juice lies in the fact that starchy substances envelop the gastric mucosa, blocking contact with irritating bacteria.
