Gastrointestinal tract

"The human gastrointestinal tract is the stomach and intestine, sometimes including all the structures from the mouth to the anus. (The ""digestive system"" is a broader term that includes other structures, including the accessory organs of digestion).
In an adult male human, the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is 5 metres (20 ft) long in a live subject, or up to 9 metres (30 ft) without the effect of muscle tone, and consists of the upper and lower GI tracts. The tract may also be divided into foregut, midgut, and hindgut, reflecting the embryological origin of each segment of the tract.
The GI tract always releases hormones to help regulate the digestion process. These hormones, including gastrin, secretin, cholecystokinin, and grehlin, are mediated through either intracrine or autocrine mechanisms, indicating that the cells releasing these hormones are conserved structures throughout evolution."

H2 Blockers

"H2 blockers, also called H2-receptor antagonists, are medicines that reduce the amount of acid the stomach produces by blocking one important producer of acid: histamine2. A cell in the stomach, called a parietal cell, makes acid. These cells, found in the stomach lining, are stimulated in a number of ways to produce acid. One of these methods is histamine. H2 Blockers reduce acid production by blocking signals that tell the stomach to make acid. Their four drugs that work by this mechanism in the United States are Zantac (ranitidine), Pepcid (famotidine), Tagamet (cimetidine) and Axid (nizatidine).
Histamine2, a common chemical in the body, signals the stomach to make acid. H2 Blockers oppose histamine’s action and reduce the amount of acid the stomach produces. This type of medication is used to treat conditions in which the stomach produces too much acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease. They also have been prescribed for the treatment of peptic ulcer symptoms."
