6 GIT-drugs/2013
7. Peptic Ulcer Disease
Imbalance between defenses and aggressive factors
Defensive factors:
1.Mucus: continually secreted, protective effect
2.Bicarbonate: secreted from endothelial cells
3.Blood flow: good blood flow maintains mucosal
integrity
4.Prostaglandins: stimulate secretion of bicarbonate and
mucus, promote blood flow, suppress secretion of gastr
acid
8/30/2022
7
8. Aggressive factors:
1.Helicobacter pylori: gram negative bacteria, live in
stomach and duodenum, may breakdown mucus layer
=> inflammatory response to presence of the bacteria
also produces urease forms CO2 and ammonia
which are toxic to mucosa
2.Gastric Acid: needs to be present for ulcer to form
=> activates pepsin and injures mucosa
3.Decreased blood flow: causes decrease in mucus
production and bicarbonate synthesis, promote gastric
acid secretion
4.NSAIDS: inhibit the production of prostaglandins
5.Smoking: nicotine stimulates gastric acid
production

12. PPIs
1. Most potent suppressors of acid secretion
2. 24-48 hr effects on acid suppression
Irreversible inhibitor of proton pump; blocks 98%
of acid secretion in all forms of ulcer and
hypersecretory Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
The drug is given in gelatin coated capsule to resist
breakdown in stomach acid. It reaches the intestine,
well absorbed, enters blood stream,reaches the parietal
cell.
8/30/2022
12 GIT-drugs/2013
13. PPIs
Irreversibly inhibit H+/K+ATPase function to:
Block gastric acid secretion
Decrease pepsin concentration
Increase gastric pH
Secretion of acid only resumes when new
proton pumps are deployed
Steady-state inhibition (affecting 70% of
pumps) may take 2-5 days
8/30/2022
13 GIT-drugs/2013
14. PPI Pharmacology
Activated only when pH decreases below 4
Occurs only in parietal cell
Achieved only when parietal cell activation occurs
(after meals)
Most effective after a prolonged fast when large
amounts of active proton pumps are present (i.e.
breakfast)

decreasing both intestinal secretions and the
flow of feces and increasing segmental
contractions
Examples:
Diphenoxylate
Loperamide
Paregoric
Side effects include CNS depression, ileus,
urine retention, bloat, and constipation
8/30/2022
54 GIT-drugs/2013
55. Probiotics seed the GI tract with beneficial
bacteria; use is based on the theory that some
forms of diarrhea are caused by disruption of
the normal bacterial flora of the GI tract
Must be refrigerated to maintain the viability
of the bacteria
Examples:
Plain yogurt with active cultures
Variety of trade-name products
8/30/2022
55 GIT-drugs/2013
56. A theory regarding the development of
diarrhea is that anaerobic bacteria may
increase due to disruption of normal GI
flora
One way to treat this is to use an antibiotic
effective against anaerobic bacteria
Metronidazole is an example of an
antibiotic used to treat diarrhea
8/30/2022
56 GIT-drugs/2013
57. Cost-effectiveness studies of Zinc
supplementation…
zinc supplementation significantly improved
the cost-effectiveness of standard
management of diarrhoea for dysenteric as
well as non-dysenteric illness.
Sufficient evidence to recommend the
inclusion of zinc into standard case
management of both types of acute
diarrhoea
8/30/2022
57 GIT-drugs/2013
58. The new WHO-UNICEF recommended policies
for health professionals on the treatment of
diarrhoea
1. Counsel mother to begin administering suitable home
fluids immediately upon onset of diarrhoea in a child
2. Treat dehydration with new low osmolarity ORS solution
(or with intravenous electrolyte solution in cases of severe
dehydration)
3. Emphasize continued feeding or increased breastfeeding
during, and increases feeding after, the diarrhoeal episode
4. Use antibiotics only when appropriate, i.e., in the presence
of bloody diarrhoea or shigellosis, and abstain from
administering anti-diarrhoeal drugs
5. Provide children with 20 mg per day of zinc
supplementation for 10-14 days (10 mg per day for
infants under six months old)
6. Advise mothers of the need to increase fluids and continue
feeding during future diarrheoal episodes

4. Vitamin D3
5. Vitamin E
6. Asam Folat
7. Niasin
8. Selenium
9. Yodium
10. Besi
11. Seng 8/30/2022
62 GIT-drugs/2013
64. Petunjuk penggunaan taburia :
1. Sebelum memberikan taburia, sebaiknya cuci
tangan terlebih dahulu dengan sabun
2. Tambahkan satu bungkus Taburia pada makanan
padat anak siap santap (nasi, lauk pauk, bubur,
ubi,jagung,kentang dll)
3. Pilih kapan / waktu balita makan paling banyak.
Dianjurkan pada makan pagi
4. Taburia sebaiknya tidak dicampur dengan
makanan yang terlalu berair, seperti minuman
susu, teh, atau sayuran berkuah seperti sup, sayur
bening dll karena mineral tidak larut sehingga
dikhawatirkan tidak habis dikonsumsi.
5. Tidak boleh dicampur pada makanan yang panas
(lapisan lemak akan pecah dan beberapa zat gizi
akan rusak) 8/30/2022
64 GIT-drugs/2013
65. Yang perlu diketahui bila mengkonsumsi Taburia
Selama mengonsumsi Taburia, ada kemungkinan tinja
anak berwarna hitam. Hal ini bukan masalah karena
warna hitam itu disebabkan oleh zat besi yang
dikandung Taburia.
Adakalanya terjadi susah buang air besar. Hal ini dapat
diatasi dengan anak meminum air putih matang yang
lebih banyak.
Anak bisa mengalami diare/mencret-mencret, bila
mengkonsumsi makanan yg tidak disiapkan dengan
sanitasi yg baik
