The gown, which is technically called an academic dress, was first worn for tertiary education and later on, secondary education.

Usually a doctor puts you on an acid-reducing drug to treat gastritis like Nexium, Prevacid, Protonix, Prilosec, and Aciphex, among others. These drugs usually take up to 8 weeks to reach their full effect since they mess with the acid-producing cells in your stomach and your duodenum. When I had gastritis, It took me some 2-3 weeks after starting an acid-reducing drug to feel some relief. When I had gastritis (I also had esophagitis at the same time), I was put on various Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) to treat it. First, I was on Prevacid for a few weeks. I felt a little better on it, but didn't feel completely normal. So I went back to my doctor who then put me on Protonix.
