Sucralfate (trade name CARAFATE) is a medication primarily taken to treat active duodenal ulcers. Sucralfate is also used for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and stress ulcers. Sucralfate is a sucrose sulfate-aluminium complex that binds to the ulcer, creating a physical barrier that protects the gastrointestinal tract from stomach acid and prevents the degradation of mucus. Sucralfate is only minimally absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The small amounts of the sulfated disaccharide that are absorbed are excreted primarily in the urine.

While healing with sucralfate may occur during the first week or two, treatment should be continued for 4 to 8 weeks unless healing has been demonstrated by x-ray or endoscopic examination. Maintenance therapy for duodenal ulcer patients at reduced dosage after healing of acute ulcers. Launch Date 1981

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

The recommended adult oral dosage for duodenal ulcer is 1 g (10 mL/2 teaspoons) four times per day. CARAFATE should be administered on an empty stomach.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

For sustained release of sucralfate and bFGF, implants were coated with hydron. Suspension no. 1 contained 100 ml of 95% ethanol mixed with 0.12 mg/ml of hydron. Next, 60 ml of premixed suspension no. 1 was prepared with 10 mg/ml of sucralfate. Then, 20 ml of premixed suspension no. 2 was mixed with 12 ng/ml of bFGF, which was prepared with 100 jul of sterile saline. Finally, implants were dipped into the suspension for 5 min and then dried for 8 h before being placed in the media in sterile Petri dishes.
