More research into maintenance therapy is clearly required, because the relative long-term efficacy of different treatments, particularly the combination of PPIs with antibiotics, and the effect of dose variation on the relapse and complications from gastric ulcers is not well studied.
Recent observations have suggested that the duration of treatment with acid secretory inhibitors is more important than the degree of acid inhibition per 24-hours [ 33 ] . We could not test the long-term effect of PPIs on ulcer relapse rates, since there was not enough information published.
Overall healing rates of PPIs at four and eight weeks were estimated by pooling the rates for the recommended daily doses: 30 mg/d for lansoprazole, 20 mg/d for omeprazole, 40 mg/d for pantoprazole.
The healing RR in each trial of the newer PPIs was found to be comparable or better than omeprazole at each time point (Figure 1).
This is consistent with the results obtained for treatment with PPIs when compared to ranitidine for both duodenal ulcers and gastro esophageal reflux disease [ 2 28 ] . We also found that, there is some evidence of an advantage to prescribing two of the newer PPIs (lansoprazole or pantoprazole) compared to omeprazole for gastric ulcer, since there was a 15% increase in healing rates at 4 weeks.
