Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that her symptoms are due to gastritis. I would advise that she should take an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals along with Domperidone 30mg. She should eat light meals prepared under hygienic conditions. She should drink lots of water daily.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
