The treatment principle is to eliminate the causative factors, neutralize gastric acid, and protect the gastric mucosa. For mildly affected pigs, keep them quiet to reduce stress responses. Sedatives may be injected, such as: chlorpromazine hydrochloride, 1 to 3 mg per kg of body weight each time. To neutralize gastric acid and prevent damage to the gastric mucosa, antacids such as aluminum hydroxide magnesium silicate or magnesium oxide can be used to reduce the acidity of the gastric contents. To protect the ulcer surface, prevent bleeding, and promote healing, bismuth subnitrate 5 to 10 g can be administered before feeding, 3 times a day. Tannalbin can also be given orally, 2 to

Tannalbin can also be given orally, 2 to 5 g each time, 2 to 3 times a day, for 5 to 7 consecutive days. In addition, to maintain normal emptying of chyme, sodium polyacrylate 5 to 20 g daily can be dissolved in water for drinking; or mixed into feed at a ratio of 0.5 percent to 5 percent and fed, for 5 to 7 consecutive days. If the pig is extremely anemic and is confirmed to have gastric perforation or diffuse peritonitis, then there is no therapeutic value, and it should be culled as early as possible.
