[Drug Interactions]

[Pharmacological Action]
This product is a gastrin receptor antagonist, with a chemical structure similar to the terminal chemical structures of two intestinal kinins: gastrin (G-17) and cholecystokinin (CCK). Its amide functional group specifically competes with gastrin for gastrin receptors on parietal cells, significantly inhibiting gastrin-induced gastric acid and pepsin secretion. It has no significant effect on gastric acid secretion induced by histamine or vagus nerve stimulation. It increases the content of hexosamine in the gastric mucosa, promotes glycoprotein synthesis, and has a protective and healing effect on the gastric mucosa. It can improve the symptoms of peptic ulcers and promote ulcer healing. This product does not cause rebound gastric acid secretion in the treatment of peptic ulcers and gastritis, and can maintain normal gastric acid secretion for up to six months after treatment discontinuation. In addition, this product has a choleretic effect through three pathways: ① By stimulating bile acid-independent bile secretion, it facilitates stone excretion and biliary tract flushing and dredging; ② By altering the stone-forming factors in bile, it significantly increases bicarbonate concentration and excretion volume, while reducing the concentrations of free bilirubin, cholesterol, and calcium ions; ③ By antagonizing CCK, it inhibits the endogenous CCK-stimulating effect, thereby expanding gallbladder capacity and diluting bile components within the gallbladder, thereby preventing stone formation. This product is safe, with an acute oral LD50 of 17.8g/kg in mice.
