Numerous drugs, such as nizatidine (Axid AR), cimetidine (Tagamet HB), and famotidine (Pepcid), which neutralize stomach acid, are used to treat gastritis. Many synthetic medications are used to treat gastritis, including those that lower the secretion of acid in the stomach, known as antacids; protecting the mucous tissues lining the stomach and upper small intestine (demulcents); or get rid of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). The current chapter aimed to introduce a safe medicine (or more) of natural origin that can control gastritis without causing negative side effects. Targeting to find new natural anti-gastritis treatments, thorough findings have been continued by different research groups globally. Herbs, medicinal plants, other spices, vegetables, and unprocessed pharmacological substances are thought to be possible sources for treating various illnesses, including gastritis and peptic ulcers. Numerous medicinal plants and their secondary metabolites have been identified in the scientific literature as having potential anti-gastric properties. Natural remedies offer promising outcomes and less negative side effects. The objective of the current chapter is to compile information published within the last couple of decades and examine natural remedies used to treat these illnesses and their purposive effects.
