Effects of ranitidine and cisapride on acid reflux and oesophageal motility in patients with reflux oesophagitis: a 24 hour ambulatory combined pH and manometry study.
W Inauen,C. Emde,B. Weber,David Armstrong,H U Bettschen,T Huber,U Scheurer,A. L. Blum,F Halter,H S Merki +9 more
TL;DR: The findings show that the 30% reduction of oesophageal acid exposure achieved by a conventional dose of ranitidine can be improved to more than 60% by combination with cisapride (20 mg twice daily), and combination of a histamine H2 receptor antagonist with a prokinetic agent may therefore provide an alternative treatment for reflux oesphagitis.
