Comparison of roxatidine and ranitidine in the treatment of refractory duodenal ulcer

1994

Abstract Fourteen patients with duodenal ulcer not healed after treatment with ranitidine at the standard dosage of 300 mg/day for 12 weeks were enrolled in the study. Eight patients were treated with roxatidine acetate, 150 mg/day, for 8 weeks (group A); six patients received treatment with ranitidine, 600 mg/day, for 8 weeks (group B).

The patients treated with roxatidine showed a significant reduction in MAO levels after 4 weeks, whereas the patients treated with ranitidine showed a significant reduction in MAO levels after 8 weeks.…
