Inhibition of Basal and Pentagastrin-stimulated Gastric Acid Secretion after Treatment with Benzilonium Bromide and after Selective Proximal Vagotomy

Abstract: 50 consecutive patients with radiographically verified duodenal ulcer and a history of peptic ulcer disease for more than 3 years and with elevated gastric acid secretion in the basal state and after stimulation with pentagastrin were randomly allocated to two groups. The first group of 25 patients was treated with benzilonium bromide (Ulcoban Prolongatum, Parke, Davis & Co.) and the second group was subjected to selective proximal vagotomy (SPV). The patient's gastric acid secretion was determined before the … Show more

“…The anticholinergic inhibitor benzilonium has been compared in a controlled trial with selective proximal vagotomy. 9 After one year peak acid output was reduced by 49%' in patients taking the drug and by 66% in the vagotomised; the 24 vagotomised patients had none (19) or minimal (six) symptoms, but only 10 of the 23 medically treated were symptom free, 10 having occasional eructations and three more severe symptoms, two of whom had relapsed when they defaulted from tablet taking.…”

“…It reduces gastric acidity to a similar degree, has no known metabolic side effects and gives very little risk of bacterial overgrowth. Jaska [18] com pared a conventional antimuscarinic (benzilonium bromide) and vagotomy in a 1-year trial and found it similarly effective with regard to ulcer recurrence, but of limited acceptance because of side effects.…”
