08/01/2010 - "Roxatidine is an H(2) receptor blocker frequently used in the treatment of peptic ulcers. "

01/01/1988 - "The present data suggests that a single bedtime dose of roxatidine acetate 150 mg produces effective duodenal ulcer healing and pain relief equivalent to that produced by a twice daily dosage regimen."
08/01/1993 - "At the end of 4 weeks, total pain relief was obtained in 74% and 70% patients receiving Roxatidine and Cimetidine respectively. "
01/01/1988 - "Clinical trials revealed that roxatidine acetate, 75 mg twice daily and 150 mg at night, was highly effective in healing duodenal and gastric ulcers and in reducing ulcer pain, over 4, 6, and 8 weeks of therapy. "
12/01/1995 - "Both drugs relieved pain rapidly, usually within a week, and at repeat endoscopy at 4 weeks most ulcers (78%) were healed, 77.0 and 79.5 per cent in ranitidine and roxatidine, and in those patients in whom healing was not completed the healing rate had risen appreciably to 89.8 and 93.8 per cent respectively at 6 weeks.
