Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

You can take proton pump inhibitor(PPI) like Tab Pantoprazole 40mg for gas and acidity related to alcohol.

Due to alcohol the mucosa will be burnt and with that due to reduced food intake the gastric acid will also act over mucosa and hence gastritis will be developed. So the best treatment is to have some food before having alcohol and also along with alcohol so that the contact of alcohol and gastric acid with stomach mucosa will be reduced. Along with that take Tab Pantoprazole 40mg 30 min before drinking so as to reduce to gastric acid secretion. These measures will help you to prevent stomach related problem due to alcohol.

If there is already developed gastritis, you can take Syp Sucralfate which will help in healing gastric ulcer and follow above mentioned measures.

Hope this answered your query. Feel free to ask if any related query and I will be glad to answer them.

Wish you good health.

Regards
