Abstract
In a prospective study 67 patients with bleeding from acute gastric mucosal lesions were treated by intravenous infusion of secretin. In 64 of the 67 patients bleeding stopped during secretin infusion. In 16 of these 64, bleeding recurred after cessation of the secretin infusion; all recurrences were stopped by secretin. Severe side effects were not observed. Secretin seems to be an effective drug in the treatment of stress ulcer bleeding.
