Abstract:
The influence of smoking on the cure of patients with peptic disease under non-steroidal antiphlogistic drugs. Observation over a 2-month period of 35 patients with peptic ulcer or erosive duodenitis related to the use of non-steroidal antiphlogistic drugs shows a significant delay in endoscopic cure in smokers, whether or not they have stopped smoking.
