6Gastritis
- Aspirin NSAID Gastritis
- Alcohol
- Alcohol and certain other chemicals can cause
inflammation and injury to the stomach. This is
strictly dose related in that a lot of alcohol is
usually needed to cause gastritis. Social or
occasional alcohol use is not damaging to the
stomach although alcohol does stimulate the
stomach to make acid.

9Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a very common
ailment, affecting one out of eight persons in
the United States. The causes of PUD have
gradually become clear. With this understanding
have come new and better ways to treat ulcers and
even cure them
10PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE
- Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)
11PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE Symptoms
12PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE
- Therapy of PUD has undergone profound changes.
There are now available very effective
medications to supress and almost eliminate the
outpouring of stomach acid. These
acid-suppresssing drugs have been dramatically
effective in relieving symptoms and allowing
ulcers to heal. If an ulcer has been caused by
aspirin or an arthritis drug, then no subsequent
treatment is usually needed. Avoiding these
latter drugs, should prevent ulcer recurrence.
The second major change in PUD treatment has
been the discovery of the H. pylori infection.
When this infection is treated with antibiotics,
the infection, and the ulcer, do not come back.
Increasingly, physicians are not just suppressing
the ulcer with acid-reducing drugs, but they are
also curing the underlying ulcer problem by
getting rid of the bacterial infection. If this
infection is not treated, the ulcers invariably
recur. There are a number of antibiotic
programs available to treat H. pylori and cure
ulcers. Working with the patient, the physician
will select the best treatment program available
13Treatment of peptic ulcer
- Antimicrobial agents (tetracycline, bismuth
subsalicylate, and metronidazole) to eradicate H.
pylori infection - Misoprostol (a prostaglandin analog) to inhibit
gastric acid secretion and increase carbonate and
mucus production, to protect the stomach lining - Antacids to neutralize acid gastric contents by
elevating the gastric pH, thus protecting the
mucosa and relieving pain - Avoidance of caffeine and alcohol to avoid
stimulation of gastric acid secretion - Anticholinergic drugs to inhibit the effect of
the vagal nerve on acid-secreting cells - H2 blockers to reduce acid secretion
- Sucralfate, mucosal protectant to form an
acid-impermeable membrane that adheres to the
mucous membrane and also accelerates mucus
production - Dietary therapy with small infrequent meals and
avoidance of eating before bedtime to neutralize
gastric contents - Insertion of a nasogastric tube (in instances of
gastrointestinal bleeding) for gastric
decompression and rest, and also to permit iced
saline lavage that may also contain
norepinephrine - Gastroscopy to allow visualization of the
bleeding site and coagulation by laser or cautery
to control bleeding - Surgery to repair perforation or treat
unresponsiveness to conservative treatment, and
suspected malignancy.
14- Ranitidine (Ranitidin)
- Forms of production 0,15 g and 0,3 g tablets and
ampoules with 2 ml of 2,5 solution.

ERADICATION

17A typical quadruple therapy
18Ulcers associated with NSAIDs
- omeprazole 20mg daily is preferable to ranitidine
150mg twice daily as the respective rates of
healing are 80 and 63. - H2RAs are slow to heal the ulcers if the
offending drug is not stopped and so, under these
conditions, a PPI is preferred. - H pylori eradication is no more effective than
omeprazole alone to heal ulcers, but if the
infection is present, then eradication will
reduce the rate of relapse. - H pylori is not associated with an increased risk
of ulcer with NSAIDs in the elderly but there is
an increased risk of bleeding.
19- Motilium
- Form of production 0,01 g tablets
20LAXATIVES AND CATHARTICS
- Constipation can be defined as infrequent or
hard pellet stools, or difficulty in evacuating
stool. Passing one or more soft, bulky stools
every day is a desirable goal. While troublesome,
constipation is not usually a serious disorder.
However, there may be other underlying problems
causing constipation and, therefore, testing is
often recommended.
21Constipation
22(No Transcript)
23Indications for Use
- 1. To relieve constipation in pregnant women,
elderly clients whose abdominal and perineal
muscles have become weak and atrophied, children
with megacolon, and clients receiving drugs that
decrease intestinal motility (eg, opioid
analgesics, drugs with anticholinergic effects) - 2. To prevent straining at stool in clients with
coronary artery disease (eg, postmyocardial
infarction), hypertension, cerebrovascular
disease, and hemorrhoids and other rectal
conditions - 3. To empty the bowel in preparation for bowel
surgery or diagnostic procedures (eg,
colonoscopy, barium enema) - 4. To accelerate elimination of potentially toxic
substances from the GI tract (eg, orally ingested
drugs or toxic compounds) - 5. To prevent absorption of intestinal ammonia in
clients with hepatic encephalopathy - 6. To obtain a stool specimen for parasitologic
examination - 7. To accelerate excretion of parasites after
anthelmintic drugs have been administered - 8. To reduce serum cholesterol levels (psyllium
products)
24Laxatives
- There are two main types of laxatives
stimulants (chemical) and saline (liquid or
salt). They occasionally help temporary
constipation problems. However, chronic use of
laxatives, especially stimulant laxatives is
discouraged because the bowel becomes dependent
upon them. Bowel regularity should occur without
laxatives. An occasional enema is preferrable
over the chronic use of laxatives.
25Contraindications to Use
26DietThe following foods should be eaten daily in
adequate amounts
27Antidiarrheals
28(No Transcript)
29Antidiarrheals drugs
30- Antidiarrheal drugs are indicated in the
following circumstances - 1. Severe or prolonged diarrhea (gt2 to 3 days),
to prevent severe fluid and electrolyte loss - 2. Relatively severe diarrhea in young children
and older adults. These groups are less able to
adapt to fluid and electrolyte losses. - 3. In chronic inflammatory diseases of the bowel
(ulcerative colitis and Crohns disease), to
allow a more nearly normal lifestyle - 4. In ileostomies or surgical excision of
portions of the ileum, to decrease fluidity and
volume of stool - 5. HIV/AIDS-associated diarrhea
- 6. When specific causes of diarrhea have been
determined
31Contraindications to Use
- Contraindications to the use of antidiarrheal
drugs include diarrhea caused by toxic materials,
microorganisms that penetrate intestinal mucosa
(eg, pathogenic E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella),
or antibiotic-associated colitis. In these
circumstances, antidiarrheal agents that slow
peristalsis may aggravate and prolong diarrhea.
Opiates (morphine, codeine) usually are
contraindicated in chronic diarrhea because of
possible opiate dependence. Difenoxin,
diphenoxylate, and loperamide are contraindicated
in children younger than 2 years of age.
