After treatment for H. pylori and erosive gastritis, it is normal to keep taking your medicines for a while to help your stomach heal and prevent the problem from coming back. The stomach lining needs time to recover, so even if you feel better, you may need to continue your treatment for a few more weeks or months. Nexpro 40 lowers stomach acid and helps your stomach lining heal, while Librax eases spasms and discomfort. Both medicines are usually safe when used as your doctor prescribes. Nexpro can be taken for longer if your doctor says it is needed, but Librax is usually used for a shorter time, so your doctor will check if you still need it. Only take these medicines as your doctor tells you, and do not stop them suddenly without asking. It is also important to follow dietary advice, like avoiding spicy, oily, or acidic foods, eating regular meals, and managing stress. Your doctor may slowly reduce or stop your medicines once your symptoms are under control. Regular check-ups will help decide how long you should keep taking them.
