Abstract

The suppression of gastric acid secretion with anti-secretory agents has been the mainstay of medical treatment for patients with acid-related disorders. Although the majority of Helicobacter pylori -related peptic ulcers can be healed with antibiotics, ulcer healing and symptom control can be significantly improved when antibiotics are given with anti-secretory agents, especially with a proton pump inhibitor. There is a dynamic relationship between the suppression of intragastric acidity and the healing of peptic ulcer and erosive oesophagitis and control of acid-related symptoms. The suppression of gastric acid secretion achieved with H(2)-receptor antagonists has, however, proved to be suboptimal for effectively controlling acid-related disorders, especially for healing erosive oesophagitis and for the relief of reflux symptoms. H(2)-receptor antagonists are also not effective in inhibiting meal-stimulated acid secretion, which is required for managing patients with erosive oesophagitis. Furthermore, the rapid development of tolerance to H(2)-receptor antagonists and the rebound acid hypersecretion after the withdrawal of an H(2)-receptor antagonist further limit their clinical use. Although low-dose H(2)-receptor antagonists are currently available as over-the-counter medications for self-controlling acid-related symptoms, their pharmacology and pharmacodynamics have not been well studied, especially in the self-medicating population. Proton pump inhibitors have been proved to be very effective for suppressing intragastric acidity to all known stimuli, although variations exist in the rapidity of onset of action and the potency of acid inhibition after oral administration at the approved therapeutic doses, which may have important clinical implications for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and perhaps for eradicating H. pylori infection when a proton pump inhibitor is given with antibiotics. Once-daily dosing in the morning is more effective than dosing in the evening for all proton pump inhibitors with respect to the suppression of intragastric acidity and daytime gastric acid secretion in particular, which may result from a better bio-availability being achieved with the morning dose. When higher doses are needed, these drugs must be given twice daily to achieve the optimal suppression of 24 hour intragastric acidity. Preliminary results have shown that esomeprazole, the optical isomer of omeprazole, given at 40 mg, is significantly more effective than omeprazole 40 mg, lansoprazole 30 mg or pantoprazole 40 mg for suppressing gastric acid secretion. However, more studies in different patient populations are needed to compare esomeprazole with the existing proton pump inhibitors with regard to their efficacy, cost-effectiveness and long-term safety for the management of acid-related disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
