[Successful gastric ulcer treatment of a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism with cimetidine (author's transl)].

Case report on the successful gastric ulcer treatment of a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism with the H2-receptor antagonist cimetidine. After four weeks of therapy with 0.8 g/d cimetidine stomal ulcerations were seen by x-rays and endoscopy to be healed. The patient was discharged on a regimen of 400 mg daily of oral cimetidine. Peptic ulcer did not recur after 1/2 year of treatment with this H2-receptor antagonist, although the signs of primary hyperparathyroidism were still present.
