cimetidine and Esophageal Neoplasms

cimetidine has been researched along with Esophageal Neoplasms in 15 studies

Cimetidine: A histamine congener, it competitively inhibits HISTAMINE binding to HISTAMINE H2 RECEPTORS. Cimetidine has a range of pharmacological actions. It inhibits GASTRIC ACID secretion, as well as PEPSIN and GASTRIN output.
cimetidine : A member of the class of guanidines that consists of guanidine carrying a methyl substituent at position 1, a cyano group at position 2 and a 2-{[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]sulfanyl}ethyl group at position 3. It is a H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits the production of acid in stomach.

Esophageal Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the ESOPHAGUS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is common in obese patients."2.41Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease in obesity: pathophysiological and therapeutic considerations. ( Barak, N; Ehrenpreis, ED; Harrison, JR; Sitrin, MD, 2002)
"The possibility exists that Barrett's esophagus may be acquired in some instances and congenital in others."2.36Barrett's esophagus. ( Berardi, RS; Devaiah, KA, 1983)
"These findings indicate that risk of oesophageal cancer is not increased among H-2-receptor antagonist users."1.30Histamine-2-receptor antagonists and oesophageal cancer. ( Fioretti, F; Franceschi, S; La Vecchia, C; Tavani, A, 1997)
" Most of the early excess in mortality was attributable to cimetidine being given in the late stages of many diseases, often to counter adverse gastric effects of other drugs."1.28Postmarketing surveillance of the safety of cimetidine: 10 year mortality report. ( Colin-Jones, DG; Langman, MJ; Lawson, DH; Logan, RF; Paterson, KR; Vessey, MP, 1992)
"The O/E ratio of oesophageal cancer deaths also fell over the first six years of study, from 5."1.28Post-cimetidine surveillance for up to ten years: incidence of carcinoma of the stomach and oesophagus. ( Colin-Jones, DG; Langman, MJ; Lawson, DH; Logan, RF; Paterson, KR; Vessey, MP, 1991)
" So far as can be assessed, however, none of these drug-disease associations represented adverse effects of cimetidine treatment; on the contrary, they resulted from cimetidine being used, knowingly or unknowingly, for treating the symptoms of various diseases or for alleviating adverse effects of other agents such as corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and radiotherapy."1.27Postmarketing surveillance of the safety of cimetidine: 12 month mortality report. ( Colin-Jones, DG; Langman, MJ; Lawson, DH; Vessey, MP, 1983)
"I have reviewed Barrett's esophagus in the light of recent advances."1.26Barrett's esophagus: an old entity rediscovered. ( Mangla, JC, 1981)
