Superficial gastritis generally refers to chronic superficial gastritis. Omeprazole
is a proton pump inhibitor that can inhibit gastric acid secretion. Omeprazole combined with antibiotics can eradicate Helicobacter pylori and improve clinical symptoms, while 70%-90% of chronic superficial gastritis is related to Helicobacter pylori infection. For patients with chronic superficial gastritis positive for Helicobacter pylori test, proton pump inhibitors, antibiotics, bismuth agents, etc. can control the progression of the disease and achieve therapeutic purposes. Omeprazole can be used to treat chronic superficial gastritis, but it is recommended to be used under the doctor's instructions.
