View approved original text

These symptoms are mainly associated with functional abnormalities of the gastrointestinal tract and digestive disorders. Acute and chronic gastric catarrh can cause inflammation of the gastric mucosa, leading to discomfort in the epigastric area and digestive issues, as well as symptoms such as fermented diarrhea and loose stools due to indigestion or microbial imbalance in the intestines. Gastric atony and nervous gastritis, along with gastric weakness, can lead to decreased appetite and abdominal discomfort due to impaired gastric function. Hangovers, nervous hyperactivity, and stomatitis can also be influenced by both the digestive and nervous systems. These symptoms primarily require alleviation of gastrointestinal inflammation, promotion of digestion, protection of the gastric mucosa, and calming effects on the nervous system. Therefore, this medication is used to alleviate gastrointestinal inflammation, improve digestive function, and relieve symptoms of nervous gastritis.
