They suppress the secretion of gastric acid by selectively blocking H2 receptor in parietal cells lining the stomach.
They are used in combinations with antibiotics to treat ulcers caused by H pylori.
Is prescribed for gastric and peptic ulcers, GERD, and hypersecretory conditions such as Zollinger Ellison syndrome.

Q

What are contraindications and precautions of histamine 2 receptor antagonists

A

Pregnancy category B
Use in older adults can cause anti adrenergic effects ( impotence) and CNS effects ( confusion)
H2 receptor antagonists decrease gastric acidity, which promotes bacterial colonization of the stomach and secondary of the respiratory tract….uses cautiously in ppl at high risk for pneumonia, such as ppl with COPD.

Q

What are medication interactions of h2 antagonizes

A

Cimetidine can inhibit medication metabolizing enzymes and thus increases the levels of warfarin, phenytoin, theophylline and lidocaine.
Concurrent use of antacids can decrease absorption of histamine2 receptor antagonists

What is a proton pump inhibitor

A

They reduce gastric acid secretion by irreversibly inhibiting the enzyme that produces gastric acid
PPIs reduce basal and stimulated acid production

They are prescribed for gastric and duodenal ulcers, erosive esophagitis, GERD, and hypersecretory conditions such as Zollinger Ellison syndrome.
