Question: what over the counter drugs can you take for gastritis?
Answer: You may try over-the-counter antacids (such as Maalox, Mylanta, Tums or generic forms) or an H2 blocker, such as cimetidine, famotidine, or nizatidine. H2 blockers also are available in prescription strength. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are even stronger acid blockers.
