H pylori should be treated with a 10- to 14-day course of therapy including a proton pump inhibitor and two antibiotics (see below).
Antacids and other antiulcer drugs Antacids (usually containing aluminium or magnesium compounds) can often relieve symptoms in ulcer dyspepsia and in non-erosive gastro-oesophageal reflux; they are also sometimes used in non-ulcer …
Combined therapy with aprepitant, a 5-HT3-receptor antagonist, and dexamethasone prevents acute emesis in 80-90% of patients compared with less than 70% treated without aprepitant. Proton pump inhibitors do not have teratogenicity in animal models; however, safety during pregnancy has not been established.Acid is important in releasing vitamin B12 from food. A longer-acting formulation is available for once-monthly depot intramuscular injection.Two gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (carcinoid, VIPoma) cause secretory diarrhea and systemic symptoms such as flushing and wheezing.
Antidiarrheal drugs include antimotility agents, adsorbents, and drugs that modify fluid and electrolyte transport. See our
Sucralfate (administered as a slurry through a nasogastric tube) reduces the incidence of clinically significant upper gastrointestinal bleeding in critically ill patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit, although it is slightly less effective than intravenous H2 antagonists. Two selective antagonists of the -opioid receptor are commercially available: methylnaltrexone bromide and alvimopan. In many cases, the infection will pass in a few days. For patients with ulcers caused by aspirin or other NSAIDs, the NSAID should be discontinued. They increase colonic phasic segmenting activity through inhibition of presynaptic cholinergic nerves in the submucosal and myenteric plexuses and lead to increased colonic transit time and fecal water absorption. The long-term efficacy and safety of this agent require further study.Antidiarrheal agents may be used safely in patients with mild to moderate acute diarrhea.
Although proton pump inhibitors are increasingly used, there are no controlled trials demonstrating efficacy or optimal dosing.Patients with isolated gastrinomas are best treated with surgical resection. This increases chloride-rich fluid secretion into the intestine, which stimulates intestinal motility and shortens intestinal transit time. The doctors lacking the resources and time to find the solution of the multiplex pain problems of their patients thought that prescribing pills was an easier fix. It inhibits the secretion of numerous hormones and transmitters, including gastrin, cholecystokinin, glucagon, growth hormone, insulin, secretin, pancreatic polypeptide, vasoactive intestinal peptide, and 5-HT.2. These balanced, isotonic solutions contain an inert, nonabsorbable, osmotically active sugar (PEG) with sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium chloride.
However, benefit compared with placebo has never been convincingly demonstrated.Prevention of Bleeding from Stress-Related Gastritis Clinically important bleeding from upper gastrointestinal erosions or ulcers occurs in 1-5% of critically ill patients as a result of impaired mucosal defense mechanisms caused by poor perfusion. Therefore, they are safe for all patients. The chemoreceptor trigger zone is rich in dopamine D2 receptors and opioid receptors, and possibly serotonin5-HT3 receptors and NK1 receptors.2. Preclinical and clinical screening of anticancer drugs It inhibits secretion of some anterior pituitary hormones.The clinical usefulness of somatostatin is limited by its short half-life in the circulation (3 minutes) when it is administered by intravenous injection. It is administered as a subcutaneous injection (0.15 mg/kg) every 2 days.
The antiemetic action of these agents is restricted to emesis attributable to vagal stimulation (eg, postoperative) and chemotherapy; other emetic stimuli such as motion sickness are poorly controlled.5-HT3-receptor antagonists do not inhibit dopamine or muscarinic receptors.
