The aim of this study was to investigate the protective action of a new compound, ranitidine bismuth citrate, in the prevention of aspirin-induced acute mucosal injury to the upper gastrointestinal tract of healthy human volunteers. In a double-blind randomized three-way cross-over study 24 male volunteers received placebo, 900 mg aspirin or 900 mg aspirin and 800 mg ranitidine bismuth citrate at 12-h intervals for nine doses with a 2-week wash-out period between each treatment. The median (interquartile range) number of erosions seen at endoscopy when ranitidine bismuth citrate was given with aspirin (1 [0-4]) was significantly lower than aspirin alone (24 [16-32]) (P < 0.001) and not significantly different from either baseline or placebo (0 [0-2]). These findings were similarly reflected in the effects on microbleeding following the ninth dose: 12.1 (7.1-21.0) microL/10 min following aspirin alone compared to levels with placebo of 1.2 (0.4-2.9), and with aspirin and ranitidine bismuth citrate of 1.6 (0.8-2.6) (P < 0.005). Ranitidine bismuth citrate conferred substantial protection from aspirin-induced injury to the gastric and duodenal mucosa as determined by both endoscopic assessment and microbleeding rates, reducing injury to placebo levels.
