Abstract:
We describe the effect of ranitidine in reducing mucus in urine in 8 patients with enterocystoplasty and present a simple technique for measuring the concentration of mucus in urine. After a 10-day course of ranitidine (300 mg daily in divided doses) the concentration of mucus had fallen significantly from an initial level of 1.38 +/- 0.18 to 0.39 +/- 0.04 mg/ml.
