    Summary
    In three subjects with acute alcoholic pancreatitis, gastric acid secretion was increased above normal and was decreased by glucagon and cimetidine used alone and in combination.

    Thus, we compared the effects of nasogastric suction, intravenous glucagon (5 microgram/kg per hour), and cimetidine (2 mg/kg per hour) on the output of acid and pancreatic enzymes and the clinical course of human acute pancreatitis.
