Duodenal ulcer healing on 2 g of sucralfate daily at bedtime compared to 1 g four times daily.
Seventy-seven patients with endoscopically verified duodenal ulcers were randomized to treatment with either 2 g sucralfate daily at bedtime or 1 g sucralfate q.d.s. in a controlled double-blind comparative study. After a 4-week treatment period, the healing rate was 68% for the former and 69% for the latter treatment.
