Correct answer: B. Sucralfate
- A. Ranitidine
- B. Sucralfate
- C. Misoprostal
- D. Pantoprazole
Explanation
Ranitidine, misoprostol and pantoprazole suppress gastric acid secretion through H2 blockade, prostaglandin action and proton-pump inhibition, respectively. Sucralfate mainly forms a protective barrier over ulcers and does not significantly reduce acid secretion.
