Are you talking about gastritis? Gastritis is common in those who do a lot of heavy or binge drinking. What is ordered for relief are antacids, acid blockers and cytoprotective drugs (drugs that protect the stomach lining and small intestine). Any treatment is includes strict instructions are given to stop drinking!

Antacids, available OTC:
maalox
mylanta
etc.

Acid blockers:
zantac
tagamet
pepcid
axid

Cytoprotective:
cytotec
carafate

The doctor may also prescribe antabuse, a powerful drug that will make the drinker extremely ill when he consumes any alcohol. He will experience headaches, palpitations, chest pain, and nausea....he will feel like he is dying. Now, if he continues to drink despite taking the medication, he could also develop shock, collapse and even die if the shock is not treated.
