Nizatidine Improves Clinical Symptoms and Gastric Emptying in Patients with Functional Dyspepsia Accompanied by Impaired Gastric Emptying

Abstract: Background/Aims: In this crossover study, we investigated whether nizatidine, a H2-receptor antagonist, can alleviate clinical symptoms and gastric emptying in patients with Rome III-based functional dyspepsia (FD) with or without impaired gastric emptying. Methods: We enrolled 30 patients presenting with FD symptoms (epigastric pain syndrome, n = 6; postprandial distress syndrome, n = 24). Rome III-based FD patients were treated with nizatidine (300 mg/day) or placebo for 4 weeks in a crossover tri… Show more

“…A randomized, controlled trial in adults found that PPI therapy improved symptoms only in FD patients with concurrent heartburn [145] . Whether the therapeutic benefit is related to acid hypersensitivity is not clear as these medications may be treating a component of acid mucosal injury or co-morbid GERD, or may also improve dyspeptic symptoms related to delayed gastric emptying [146] . Still, acid reduction therapy remains the most common treatment prescribed empirically by pediatric gastroenterologists for FD in children [147] .…”

“…[22][23][24] We estimated clinical symptoms with the GSRS. 25 The GSRS is composed of 15 items (epigastric pain, epigastric burning, gastroesophageal reflux symptom, eructation, postprandial fullness, abdominal distention, early satiety, abdominal pain, the feeling of hunger, nausea, borborygmus, constipation, diarrhea, loose stools and hard stools) which generated 5 components including gastroesophageal reflux, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, diarrhea and constipation.…”

“…We assessed abdominal symptoms using the modified Glasgow dyspepsia severity score (GDSS) [9,17,23,24], which is based on frequency (never, score 0; on only 1 or 2 days, score 1; on approximately 1 day per week, score 3; on approximately 50% of days, score 4; on most days, score 5), duration (minimun score, 0; maximal score 5), and intensity of symptoms (minimun score, 0; maximal score, 3). Status of depression was evaluated by Self-Rating Questionnaire for Depression (SRQ-D) scores [25].…”

“…We have reported that prokinetics like mosapride citrate improves clinical symptoms by affecting the T max value in proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-resistant NERD patients with impaired gastric emptying [16]. In addition, we have also reported that nizatidine administration significantly improved both gastric emptying and clinical symptoms in FD patients with impaired gastric emptying [17]. Therefore, we have considered that T max value using 13 C-acetate breath test were the useful marker for treatment of FD patients.…”
