Brief Answer:
No

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I am Dr.Barani and I am pleased to assist you.

I presume you wanted to ask whether sucralfate causes burning sensation in the stomach.

The answer is NO.
In fact sucralfate is used to treat increased acidity related issues like peptic ulcer.
Sucralfate helps in healing peptic ulcer and it is the ulcer that causes the burning sensation and not the medication.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
