9. Drug abuse: Many drugs can harm the stomach lining. For example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as phenylbutazone, ibuprofen, indomethacin, aspirin all produce analgesic effects through the mechanism of inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, which has a protective role in the gastric mucosa.
