dc.description.abstractTwenty patients with endoscopically proved reflux esophagitis were studied. Each patient was given 1 gm sucralfate 4 times a day for 6 weeks. Clinical and endoscopic assessment of the effects of sucralfate on reflux esophagitis was done. 50% patients became asymptomatic and 60% healed endoscopically. The drug was well tolerated. We conclude that sucralfate is an effective and well tolerated drug for treatment of reflux esophagitis.en_US
