Babesiosis in man: a case from Scotland.

Abstract

for peptic ulcer, and the three patients in our study who had undergone vagotomy and drainage or gastric resection all needed frequent dilatations during both placebo and cimetidine treatment periods.Since our results show that cimetidine benefits oesophagitis, however, it seems reasonable to hope that a longer period of treatment might lessen the need for dilatation.We are indebted to Dr P D James for the histopathological reports, and to Smith Kline and French Laboratories Ltd for the placebo and cimetidine tablets.
