RESUMEN
Objective To compare the clinical effect of pantoprazole and omeprazole in the treatment of elderly patients with peptic ulcer.Methods 200 patients with peptic ulcer were selected as study subjects,and they were randomly divided into two groups.The control group (100 cases) was orally given clarithromycin,amoxicillin and omeprazole triple therapy.The observation group (100 cases) was given clarithromycin,amoxicillin and pantoprazole triple therapy.The clinical efficacy,clinical symptoms disappeared time and adverse reactions occurred in the two groups were compared.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 96％,which of the control group was 94％,the difference between two groups was not significant (x2 =0.421,P ＞ 0.05).The disappear time of abdominal pain,belching,burning and bleeding in the observation group after treatment were significantly shorter than those of the control group(t =35.545,56.680,98.896,61.109,all P ＜ 0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reaction of the observation group(5.0％) had no significant difference compared with the control group(7.0％) (x2 =0.354,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion There is no significant difference in efficacy and safety between pantoprazole and omeprazole in the treatment of elderly patients with peptic ulcer,but the effect of pantoprazole on relieving symptoms is better than omeprazole.
