  • Title: H2-antagonists in the treatment of recurrent ulceration after vagotomy.
    Author: Clark CG, Boulos PB, Haggie SJ, McDonald AM.
    Journal: Br J Surg; 1979 Jun; 66(6):409-11. PubMed ID: 466024.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-two patients with recurrent ulceration following vagotomy with and without a drainage procedure have been treated with histamine H2-antagonists and followed for up to 3 years. Four of a group of 6 patients responded to a single therapeutic course. Ten of 16 patients assigned to long term maintenance treatment remain symptom-free. Cimetidine may be an alternative to further surgery in the treatment of some patients with recurrent ulceration after vagotomy.
