“…In spite of the rapidly changing concept of gastric ulcer management from conventional vagotomy, prostaglandin analogues, H 2 receptor antagonists, and antacids to proton pump inhibitors, gastrointestinal toxicity remains an impediment to their application in clinical practice. Specifically, gastrointestinal toxicity of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) origin may be as high as 4-8% per year and the complications are even higher for those with additional risk factors such as prior history of ulcer disease (Griffin & Scheiman, 2001). Various synthetic antiulcer drugs are presently available and some of these like cimetidine, misoprostol, ranitidine, omeprazole, and esomeprazole are employed to manage and cure NSAID-induced gastric ulcer.…”

“…The major risk factors associated with GI complications are age (risk increases with age), a history of peptic ulceration or GI bleeding, a history of H 2 RA use, concomitant use of anticoagulants or corticosteroids, requirement for high dosage of an NSAID and concurrent use of more than one NSAID. [4][5][6] Evidence reviewed for the recently published National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines 1 suggests that Cox-2 and Cox-1 NSAIDs are of equivalent efficacy in their ability to reduce pain and improve physical functioning in patients with arthritis. This evidence also suggests that, although GI adverse events occur more frequently among patients receiving Cox-2 medication than those receiving a placebo, the incidence of these events is markedly lower than among those receiving a conventional NSAID (Cox-1) without gastroprotection.…”

“…The most common GI adverse effects include GI perforations, ulcerations, and bleeding, all of which may require hospitalization 6 . The NSAID mediated toxicity is often dose related 7 . Thus reduction in serum concentration should also lessen the risk of potentially serious systemic adverse effects secondary to NSAID induced prostaglandin inhibition such as acute renal insufficiency, nephritic syndrome, NSAID gastropathy, prolonged bleeding time, and fluid retention.…”
