Physiology of gastric secretion




Stomach secretes 2-3 liters of gastric juice
/day.
Chief/peptic cells secrete pepsinogen.
Parietal or oxyntic cells secrete acid and IF.
Superficial epithelial cells secrete alkaline
mucus and bicarbonates.
Regulation of gastric acid secretion
Ach
 Histamine
 Gastrin
 prostaglandin-E2
Phases of gastric acid secretion
 Basal, cephalic and hormonal
 Membrane bound proton pump (H+)
 K+ ATPase

Peptic ulcer


1.
2.
3.
Damage to the mucosa and deeper tissue
exposed to acid and pepsin is known as
peptic ulcer.
Causes of peptic ulcer :H. pylori infection
Use of NSAIDS
Stress
Classification of the drugs used in peptic ulcer

Drugs that inhibit gastric acid secretion
1.
Proton pump inhibitors: omeprazole, esomeprazole,
lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole.
H2-receptor antagonists: cimetidine, ranitidine,
famotidine, roxatidine,nizatidine
Antimuscarinic agents (anticholinergics): pirenzepine,
telenzepine
Prostaglandin analogs: misoprostol, enprostil.

Anti-peptic ulcer drugs

Ulcer protective
sucralfate, and bismuth subcitrate (CBS)
Drugs that neutralize gastric acid (antacids)
a)
b)
Systemic antacids: sodium bicarbonate and sodium citrate.
Non systemic antacids: magnesium hydroxide, magnesium
trisilicate, aluminum hydroxide, and calcium carbonate.
Anti-peptic ulcer drug


Anti- H. pylori drugs
Amoxicillin, tetracycline, clarithromycin,
metronidazole, tinidazole, bismuth
subsalicylate, H2-antagonists and PPIs.
Proton pump inhibitors

Proton pump, K+-ATPase membrane bound enzyme play an
important role in the final step of gastric acid secretion (basal
and stimulated).

Omeprazole is the prototype drug: these are prodrugs and
activated to sulfenamide at acidic pH. Activated form binds
covalently with SH group of H+ pump and irreversibly
inactivates it.

PPIs administered orally 30 min. before meal. Half life short
(1.5 hr), acid secretion suppressed for upto 24 hr.

Enteric coated form or powder containing
sodium bicarbonate.

i.v. formulations available for esomeprazole,
lansoprazole, pantoprazole and rabiprazole.

They are highly bound to plasma proteins;
extensively metabolized in liver and
metabolites secreted in urine.
Therapeutic uses of PPIs
1. Peptic ulcer disease
Duodenal ulcer disease
 Gastric ulcer
 Acute bleeding ulcer
 H. pylori-associated ulcer
 Stress ulcers (curling ulcers)
 NSAIDs induced ulcers
2. Gastroesophegial reflux disease (GERD)
3. Zollinger’-Ellison syndrome.

Adverse effects of PPIs





Headache, diarrhoea and abdominal pain.
Skin rashes and arthralgia.
May decrease vit B12 absorption
Increase rate of infection and fracture of bones.
Drug interactions: omeprazole can inhibit
metabolism of phenytoin, warfarin, diazepam. PPIs
decreases bioavailability of itraconazole, iron salts,
etc
H2-Receptor antagonists





Mechanism of action:
Competitively block H2 receptors on parietal
cells.
Suppress all phases of acid secretion.
Most effective in suppressing nocturnal acid
secretion.
Less potent than PPIs.




Administered orally and well absorbed.
Metabolized in liver.
Cimetidine, ranitidine and famotidine
available for i.v. administration
Nizatidine has high bioavailability (100%)






Telenzepine
Selective M1-receptor blocker
Inhibit acid secretion
Not commonly used because of their low
efficacy and anticholinergic effects.




Misoprostol effective orally for prevention
and treatment of NSAID-induced duodenal
ulcers.
Inhibit gastric acid secretion.
Increase bicarbonate and mucus secretion.
Common side effects:
Diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.
Containdicated in pregnancy
Ulcer protective

Sucralfate : it is complex aluminum hydroxide
and sulphated sucrose.

Polymerized to form sticky gel that adheres
to the ulcer base and protects it.

Form barrier against acid-pepsin.

Increase mucus-bicarbonate secretion.

Given orally empty stomach.

Reduced absorption of digoxin, tetracyclines,
ketoconazole, fluoroquinolones. etc.

Concurrent use of PPIs, H2 blocker should be
avoided.
Bismuth containing preparation

Bismuth salisylates and colloidal bismuth subcitrate.

React with protein in the base of ulcer and protect it
from peptic digestion.

Stimulates secretion of PGE2, mucus and
bicarbonate.
