What is Carafate?

Carafate is an FDA-approved prescription medication used to prevent and treat duodenal ulcers affecting the intestines. This medication works mainly in the lining of the stomach by sticking to ulcer sites and forming a coating that protects them from acids, enzymes, and bile salts.

This medication comes in the form of oral tablets and an oral suspension, both of which you should only be used as directed by your doctor. To achieve maximum effectiveness, it is important that you take this medication consistently, even if you do not feel ulcer pains. You should not stop taking this medication without approval from your doctor. This medication may take as much as four to eight weeks before your ulcers are fully healed.

Inform your doctor of all medications you are currently taking before you start using Carafate. This medication may have negative effects when used in combination with other drugs, so it is important that your doctor knows all the medications that you are currently on. You should also inform your doctor if your ulcers worsen even after taking this medication for more than four weeks.
