The effect of synthetic opiate peptide dalargin, histamine H2-receptors blockers (cimetidin, famotidin) and combination of dalargin with famotidin on proliferative activity of gastroduodenal mucosal epithelium has been studied autoradiographically (3H-thymidine) in 75 patients with duodenal ulcer. Compared to spasmolytics and antacids, the studied drugs (dalargin, cimetidin and famotidin) significantly increased the number of DNA-synthetizing cells in the epithelium of fundal stomach, duodenal cap and ulcer borders. Maximal effect was noticed in combined use of dalargin and famotidin. A correlation existed between clinical and stimulating reparative effect of the drugs.
