Had Mumps Was Taking Pain Killers. But Due To The Medication Severe Gastritis. Discontinued Pain Killers. Painkillers Safe?
I currently have mumps, the excessive intake of the pain killer ibuprofen caused gastritis as a complication. After being hospitalized for dehydration I am now back at home still in some pain due to the orchitis caused by the mumps. The Doc prescribed stopain, however I am affraid to take this due to the gastritis, is stopain safe?
Hello, Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum. Stopain is a pain killer but it develops gastritis. Stopain is safe for pain relief. If you want to take this please add some sort of antacid. Antacid type syrup which contains oxytacain ( local anesthetic) will provide you quick relief. Good luck. Dr. HET
