The Suppression of Acid Secretion Is Greater with a Proton

question 17

Multiple Choice

The suppression of acid secretion is greater with a proton pump inhibitor than with an H₂-receptor antagonist because:

• A) unlike an H₂-receptor antagonist, a proton pump inhibitor blocks the secretion of HCl.
• B) unlike an H₂-receptor antagonist, a proton pump inhibitor blocks the release of histamine from parietal cells.
• C) unlike an H₂-receptor antagonist, a proton pump inhibitor increases the volume and strength of acid secretion.
• D) unlike an H₂-receptor antagonist, a proton pump inhibitor stimulates H₁-receptors.
