Nizatidine (N-[2-[[[2-[(dimethylamino)methyl]- 4-thiazolyl]methyl]thio]ethyl]-N'-methyl-2-nitro-1,1-ethenediamine , CAS 76963-41-2) is a new histamine H2-receptor antagonist which shows suppression of gastric acid secretion and antiulcer activity. In the present experiment, the effects of single s.c. administration of nizatidine, cimetidine and ranitidine on serum gastrin levels were studied in fasted rats. Nizatidine at 100 mg/kg increased serum gastrin level 3 h after administration, which however, returned to basal level 6 h after administration. Cimetidine and ranitidine at respective doses of 250 and 100 mg/kg markedly increased serum gastrin levels 3 and 6 h after administration. In a previous study, the suppressive effect of nizatidine on basal gastric acid secretion was 82.8% at a dose of 100 mg/kg s.c. in rat pylrus-ligated model. On the basis of these findings, changes in basal gastric acid secretion and serum gastrin level after withdrawal of nizatidine, cimetidine and ranitidine administered for 14 consecutive days were studied. One day after withdrawal, nizatidine at 100 mg/kg showed a tendency to increase the basal gastric acid secretion. However, 3 and 7 days after administration, almost no changes were obtained. Cimetidine at 250 mg/kg showed a tendency to increase the basal gastric acid secretion 7 days after withdrawal of the drug. Ranitidine at 100 mg/kg induced no changes in basal gastric acid secretion after withdrawal. No obvious influences of all drugs on serum gastrin level after withdrawals were obtained. These results indicate that consecutive administration of nizatidine may cause only a transient increase of gastric acid secretion but no hypergastrinaemia after its withdrawal.
