Histamine-2 receptor antagonist (H2-RA) have been shown to improve the function of various parts of the immune system. The proposed mechanism of the immunomodulative effects of H2-RA has been considered to be the inhibition of suppressor T-lymphocyte activity, an increase in interleukin-2 production, and an enhancement of natural killer cell activity. Most of these studies were done with cimetidine. Comparative data with other H2-RA are limited and conflict on immunomodulative effects. Comparison of the actions of H2-RA on the immune system is required.
