The interactions of sucralfate with colistin sulfate, with tobramycin sulfate, and with amphotericin B were studied. Sucralfate 500 mg was added to 40 mL of distilled water adjusted to pH 3.5 with hydrochloric acid. Stock solution of one of the three antibiotics was added to give a final colistin concentration of 50 mg/L (as the sulfate salt), final tobramycin concentration of 50 mg/L (as the sulfate salt), and final amphotericin B concentration of 25 mg/L. Samples were removed from each sucralfate-antibiotic mixture at 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes and analyzed for antibiotic concentration by high-performance liquid chromatography (colistin), enzyme immunoassay (tobramycin), and spectrophotometry (amphotericin B). To determine if any interaction was reversible, the mixtures were stored for 90 minutes without sampling, the pH was adjusted to 6.5-7.0, and samples were removed and analyzed. All tests were performed in triplicate, and the temperature was maintained at 25 degrees C. Significant drug loss was observed starting at five minutes for each antibiotic-sucralfate mixture. This effect was not reversible in the less acidic environment. The concentrations of colistin, tobramycin, and amphotericin B declined rapidly when each drug was combined separately with sucralfate.

Recently it has been reported that Shosaiko-to (SHO), a traditional Chinese medicine used for treating gastritis and hepatitis, also has been found useful for treating gastric ulcers, although no pharmacological study has yet investigated the precise antiulcer properties of SHO. Herein, the authors report on the results of a rat study in which the effects of SHO on gastric ulcers, acid secretions and potential difference of gastric mucosa (PD) were studied. SHO (100, 250 or 500 mg /kg, p.o.) significantly inhibited the development of ethanol-induced gastric lesions in a dose-dependent manner. SHO (500 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly inhibited the development of aspirin-,indomethacin- or water-immersion-stress induced gastric lesions. Sucralfate (500 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibited both ethanol- and aspirin-induced gastric lesions, and cimetidine (10 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibited aspirin-, indomethacin- or stress-induced gastric lesions. SHO (10, 30 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) also significantly inhibited pentagastrin- and 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG)-induced gastric acid secretions in a dose-dependent manner, whereas cimetidine (1 mg/kg, i.p.) inhibited a pentagastrin-induced secretion and atropine (0.05 mg/kg, i.p.) inhibited pentagastrin- or 2-DG-induced acid secretions. SHO (250, 500 or 1000 mg/kg, i.g.) significantly inhibited ethanol-induced PD reduction. Sucralfate (500 mg/kg, i.g.) inhibited the reduction, and cimetidine (250 mg/kg, i.g.) didn't inhibit it. These results indicate that SHO not only possesses the capability of protecting the rat gastric mucosa as well as sucralfate, but also is able to inhibit gastric acid secretions like cimetidine or atropine.

Laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty (LAUP) is an outpatient mode of treatment for snoring and perhaps for some mild cases of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. LAUP results in severe throat pain that usually lasts for 8 to 14 days. Sucralfate adheres to proteins at the duodenal ulcer site, forming a protective coating against gastric acid, pepsin, and bile salts, that promotes healing. If a similar protective coating could be created at the area of LAUP trauma, morbidity may be diminished. Twenty-eight patients have undergone LAUP treatment-2 with mild obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and 26 with simple snoring. A block-randomized, single blind clinical study was performed. Sucralfate was administered in 14 patients (group A) every 6 hours for 15 days as a swish and swallow, whereas the other 14 patients (group B) received water for injection with a strawberry flavor as placebo with the same dosing. As a conclusion, sucralfate significantly lowered postoperative pain and the need for analgesic drug use as well as the total number of the days the patients needed to almost reach their normal diet quantity (> or = 80% of normal quantity).

A warm water crude extract of coconut milk and a coconut water dispersion were investigated for their antiulcerogenic effects in male Wistar albino rats. Ulcers were induced in the male rats by subcutaneous administration of indomethacin (40 mg/kg) using standard procedures. The ulcer inhibition rate (UIR) was taken as a measure of the cytoprotection offered by test substances. Coconut milk (2 mL daily oral feeding) produced a stronger percentage (54%) reduction in the mean ulcer area than coconut water (39%). The effect of coconut milk was similar to the effect of sucralfate that reduced the mean ulcer area by 56% in this study. Sucralfate is a conventional cytoprotective agent. The results showed that coconut milk and water via macroscopic observation had protective effects on the ulcerated gastric mucosa. It is concluded that coconut milk offered stronger protection on indomethacin-induced ulceration than coconut water in rats.
