Title: Relief of duodenal ulcer sysmptons by oral metiamide. Author: Pounder RE, Williams JG, Milton-Thompson GJ, Misiewicz JJ. Journal: Br Med J; 1975 May 10; 2(5966):307-9. PubMed ID: 236804. Abstract: Thirty patients with symptoms of duodenal ulceration were treated for five to eight weeks in a double-blind trial with either metiamide 1 g daily by mouth or a placebo. In the 15 patients receiving metiamide there were significant reductions in nocturnal pain and antacid consumption. Daytime pain was diminished. The results suggest that histamine H2-receptor antagonists are likely to be useful in the medical management of the symptoms of duodenal ulceration.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
