Significant treatment effects (p < 0.05) were also observed for the percentage of time pH was <4, with less time for pumosetrag at 0.5mg (10%) and 0.8mg (10%) compared with placebo (16%). Conclusions & Inferences: In GERD, the partial 5HT3 agonist pumosetrag significantly reduced the rate of acid reflux events but did not result in a significant change in LESP or symptomatic improvement over a 1-week treatment period.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:55:04 AEDT ]]>
