Endoscopic examination in 32 cases of chronic duodenal ulceration treated with deglycyrrhizinized liquorice tablets showed that healing of the ulceration had occurred and in the majority the mucosa appeared normal.

The doses were repeated 16 h later, and the stomachs removed after another 2 h. The amounts of prostaglandin E (PGE), 6-keto-PGF1 alpha and thromboxane B2, measured by radioimmunoassay in extracts of the gastric corpus and antrum mucosa, were similar in the treated animals and the controls.

At four hours the severity of bleeding was assessed by a lesion scoring system and expressed as medians and quartiles. In a separate study two groups of rats (n = 7) received ASA (128 mg/kg) or ASA plus DGL (2000 mg/kg) and salicylate levels measured in serial tail blood samples at 20, 40, 60 and 80 minutes.
