Abstract
Summary
Calcium carbonate and an aluminum hydroxide preparation caused inhibition of peptic activity and a rise in pH of the gastric juice of peptic ulcer patients. One hundred mg of sodium lauryl sulfate caused no significant changes, whereas 200 mg caused a slight rise in pH and decrease in peptic activity. In the presence of unchanged pH no pepsin inactivation by sodium lauryl sulfate occurred.
