Hi
ATT are a group of drugs that can cause a lot of gastric irritation. So you need to avoid other factors that can cause gastric irritation. Try to avoid spicy foods and excess chilly. Drink lots of water. Stay off alcohol and tobacco. You can take a PPI(proton pump inhibitor) during your treatment period, after consulting your physician.
Hope you get well soon
