The influence of cimetidine and ranitidine on the plasma lipid pattern.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of H2-receptor antagonist drugs on the plasma lipid pattern has been studied prospectively in 51 patients treated with cimetidine (26 patients) or ranitidine (25 patients) for gastroenterological diseases. Total and HDL cholesterol and total triglycerides have been measured. Ranitidine did not influence the investigated parameters, while cimetidine produced a significant increase in the HDL cholesterol serum concentration (P = 0.008).

Comparative effect of cimetidine and ranitidine on prolactin secretion.
Cimetidine has been shown to stimulate prolactin secretion after a intravenous administration. Cimetidine 200 mg and ranitidine 50 mg was given i.v. in a randomly allocated order to 22 volunteers on consecutive days; these doses can be regarded as equivalent as far as inhibition of gastric acid output is concerned. Plasma prolactin was estimated at regular intervals. The prolactin stimulating e...
متن کاملPotent radioprotective effect of therapeutic doses of ranitidine and famotidine against gamma-rays induced micronuclei in vivo
Background: Previous investigations have revealed, cimetidine, a histamine H2-receptor antagonist, show radioprotective effects against gamma- and neutron-induced micronuclei in bone marrow erythrocytes. In this study, the anticlastogenic effects of famotidine and ranitidine, which act similar to cimetidine as histamine H2-receptor antagonists, was investigated. Materials and Methods : Balb/c m...

متن کاملDose related in vitro effects of ranitidine and cimetidine on basal and ACTH-stimulated steroidogenesis.
Isolated bovine adrenocortical cells were incubated with and without 3 ng/ml ACTH, with various concentrations (10-1000 micrograms/ml) of either cimetidine or ranitidine. Cortisol, corticosterone, and deoxycorticosterone outputs were measured. Cimetidine and ranitidine at 320 and 1000 micrograms/ml inhibited ACTH-stimulated corticosterone and cortisol synthesis and cimetidine decreased basal co...

Forty patients with endoscopically proven persistent duodenal ulcer who had been treated for six weeks with cimetidine (1 g/day) were randomly allocated to receive a further six weeks' treatment with cimetidine (1 g/day) or ranitidine (300 mg/day). Ulcers healed in 12 of 19 patients given cimetidine (63%) and in 13 of 21 given ranitidine (62%); two patients on cimetidine and two on ranitidine d...
