What reflex inhibits gastric motility when ileum becomes overdistended?
The gastroileal reflex inhibits gastric motility when the ileum becomes overdistended. This reflex ensures that the stomach doesn't empty too quickly into an already overfull small intestine, allowing for proper digestion and absorption to occur.
Mode of action of Rabeprazole?
Rabeprazole is a selective and irreversible proton pump inhibitor. Rabeprazole suppresses gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+, K+-ATPase) enzyme system found at the secretory surface of parietal cells. It inhibits the final transport of hydrogen ions (via exchange with potassium ions) into the gastric lumen. Since the H+, K +-ATPase enzyme system is regarded as the acid (proton) pump of the gastric mucosa, rabeprazole is known as a gastric acid pump inhibitor. Rabeprazole does not have anticholinergic or histamine H2-receptor antagonist properties
How do sympathetic and parasymphatetic activity affect gastric secretion?
Sympathetic activity inhibits gastric secretion by causing vasoconstriction of blood vessels in the stomach lining. Parasympathetic activity stimulates gastric secretion by increasing blood flow and activating gastric glands, leading to increased production of stomach acid and digestive enzymes.
Is enterogastrone a case of stimulation or inhibition?
Enterogastrone inhibits forward movement (towards the anus). It is stimulated when a meal high in fat is eaten. This gives the bile secreted by the gall bladder time to work.
Is zantac illegal?
No, it's an over-the-counter medication to reduce symptoms of gastric esophageal reflux.
What is the of secretin?
It inhibits the secretions of the stomach.
Phase of gastric regulation includes inhibition by the enterogastric reflex?
The phase you are referring to is the intestinal phase of gastric regulation. During this phase, the enterogastric reflex inhibits gastric activity in response to the presence of acidic chyme in the duodenum. This helps regulate the rate at which the stomach empties its contents into the small intestine.
What is gastric diseases?
Gastric diseases are disorders that affect the stomach, such as gastritis, gastric ulcers, and gastric cancer. These conditions can cause symptoms like pain, discomfort, bloating, vomiting, and changes in appetite. Treatment may involve medication, dietary changes, and in more severe cases, surgical intervention.
How does gastric bypass affect time released medication?
If you have had a Gastric Bypass you can no longer take time released medications & you should point that fact out to any health care professionals whom you see for the rest of your life. Time released medications need to stay in your stomach for hours to work all the way....because of the reduction & reconfiguration of your stomach medication does not stay there long enough to fully dissolve or "time release"....it moves on to the intestine before it has had a chance to do what it was supposed to do.
What fluid in the body has the highest hydrogen ion concentration?
The fluid in the body with the highest hydrogen ion concentration is typically the stomach acid (gastric acid) due to the presence of hydrochloric acid. This highly acidic environment aids in digestion and helps to kill ingested pathogens.
What does delayed release medication mean?
Delayed release means that there is an enteric coating or capsule that protects the medication from being destroyed by gastric acids of the stomach to allow the active ingredient to get to the intestine for proper absorption and functioning.
What is the mechanism of medication for somebody who is diagnosed with gastric ulcers and antihistamine drug was prescribed to him?
Histamine Type-2 Receptor Antagonists (H2 Blockers)
