Effect of diazepam on unstimulated and on stimulated gastric secretion. 1975

P N Bennett, and P Davies, and G M Frigo, and W M Weerasinghe, and J E Lennard-Jones

The effect of intravenous diazepam on unstimulated and on pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion has been studied in normal subjects. No significant effect of diazapam was found on pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion. Unstimulated secretion was reduced by diazepam. This action of diazepam may be useful in peptic ulcer therapy.
