Hello, does Mesopral also work for gastritis? And how...

1) Does Mesopral also work for gastritis? And how long does it take to see the effects?

Mesopral contains the substance Esomeprazole, which belongs to a group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Esomeprazole is used to treat a variety of conditions associated with hyperacidity, such as stomach ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, as well as to treat gastritis.

Esomeprazole works by reducing the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which can help relieve symptoms associated with acidity and promote the healing of stomach ulcers.

As for the time it takes to notice the effects, it can vary depending on the individual patient's response. Some may experience relief within a few days, but it may take several weeks for the full effect of the treatment. It is important to continue using the medication as directed by your doctor, even if your symptoms start to improve.

2) I've also heard that it's bad for the gut and other organs. Is that true?

When it comes to potential side effects, each drug may have some risks, and the decision to use it should be made after a thorough evaluation of the benefits and risks by a doctor. Esomeprazole, like other proton pump inhibitors, may affect the absorption of certain nutrients, especially with long-term use. Therefore, it is recommended to use these medications as directed by your doctor, as well as regular monitoring under medical supervision.

The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book the medicine at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it after presenting a prescription:
