[|AI|]  HelloThanks for writing to ChatDoctorShe can take proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole(40 mg once daily) for gastric burning. Gastritis may occur after such prolonged treatment. She also needs follow-up Ultrasound of abdomen so that treatment response can be assessed. As liver function test is normal after treatment, nothing to be worried. Her appetite will become normal with time. Take Care Chat Doctor.
