Abstract

The capacity of pirenzepine to reduce gastric acid secretion in the basal state and after various forms of stimulation is well established by now (Jaup 1981). It is still under discussion whether the ulcer-healing and symptom-relieving effect of pirenzepine is solely due to the moderate acid reduction observed or whether other pharmacological properties such as mucosa protection or motility effects may be of importance (for references see Dotevall 1982).
