Acute oesophagitis due to emepronium bromide
Abstract
Six cases of endoscopically documented acute oesophagitis during therapy with emepronium bromide (Cetiprin) for urinary symptoms are described. The oesophagitis was associated with acute severe retrosternal pain and dysphagia which resolved spontaneously on stopping medication. The potential of this drug to induce severe oesophageal inflammation and ulceration should be emphasised.
