Care Options

Care options vary, depending on the cause of the stomach inflammation. If it's caused by a bacterial infection, a physician might prescribe an antibiotic. To alleviate acid reflux, antacids are usually prescribed. Antacids also help with the acid level in the stomach, thanks to the active ingredient, calcium carbonate.

Histamine blockers can also assist with the reduction of stomach acid. People who have ulcers may be prescribed proton pump inhibitors to block the production of acid in the stomach.
