Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Sazo contains sulfasalazine which is not a good choice in case of peptic ulcer. She needs to get PPI (proton pump inhibitor) like Omeprasole or Pantoprasole treatment. As it lasts 11 months, she also need another gastroscopy done to see if the ulcer is not a cancer.
Please consult gastrologist with this issue.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
