  • Title: Therapeutic approach to ulcer healing.
    Author: Blum AL.
    Journal: Am J Med; 1985 Aug 30; 79(2C):8-14. PubMed ID: 2863981.
    Abstract:
    The healing rate of duodenal ulcers may be accelerated by secretory inhibitors such as histamine H2-receptor antagonists and pirenzepine, by antacids, by protective drugs such as sucralfate and colloidal bismuth, and by antidepressant drugs such as trimipramine. The effect of these drugs on the rate of healing is comparable; they differ with respect to practicability of treatment, incidence and types of side effects, and suitability for long-term administration. Currently, the most versatile and most thoroughly investigated drugs are the histamine H2-receptor antagonists.
