Gastric ulcer healing with tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate and subsequent relapse.
نویسنده
چکیده
Fifty patients with endoscopically proven gastric ulcers completed a one month double-blind randomised trial of tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate (TBD) (DeNol) compared with an identical placebo. Ulcer healing occurred in 18 (72%) of the 25 patients given TDB and in nine (36%) of the patients given placebo. The TDB group experienced significantly less pain than the placebo group. During a follow-up of 29 patients with healed ulcers for up to 44 months, relapse occurred in 13 (45%). It was highest in the first three months (27%) and had risen to 41% at two years.

Symptomatic improvement was also similar in the two groups. Treatment with cimetidine was...

Of 212 patients with duodenal ulcer treated with four weeks of one gram daily cimetidine, 25 had ulcers which underwent no reduction in size despite treatment. The effects of tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate (TDB) tablet four times a day or cimetidine 1.6 g daily on the healing of these cimetidine resistant ulcers were compared in a randomised crossover trial. Ten of 12 patients on tripotassiu...

Fifty three patients with endoscopically proven duodenal ulceration have cooperated in a clinical trial to compare the ulcer healing effect of tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate (TDB) at standard dosage administered either twice or four times daily. No statistically significant difference has been found to exist between ulcer healing in the two groups at 4 weeks (72% and 67%, P = 0.944) or at 8 ...
متن کاملInfluence of ulcer healing agents on ulcer relapse after discontinuation of acute treatment: a pooled estimate of controlled clinical trials.
Whether or not the incidence of ulcer relapse varies according to the drug used to produce initial healing is a controversial matter. We tackled this problem using data from 15 eligible trials from 25 published controlled trials in patients followed up for six to 12 months. Pooled estimates of differences in ulcer relapse incidence between patients initially healed with H2-antagonists and patie...
