The effect of a single oral dose of omeprazole (90 mg) on gastric emptying was assessed with a dual isotope scintigraphic technique in eight patients with a history of duodenal ulcer disease. Omeprazole had no significant effect on solid or liquid gastric emptying. The bioavailability (AUC0‐2 h) of omeprazole in all patients was greater than that required for total suppression of acid secretion. No adverse clinical or laboratory effects were observed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
