dear
Ssri don’t cause astral erosions don’t worry
do not take pain killers like diclofenac
stop smoking and alcohol consumption if u have these habits
consume meals at regular intervals stop spicy foods.
finally instead of ranitidine take pantoprazole 40 mg twice a day for 1 week followed by once a day for 3 weeks.
take care be happy.
