Abstract
Because of intolerance to oral steroids, a patient with Chronic Active Hepatitis and an active gastric ulcer was treated with rectal steroids in addition to azathioprine and carbenoxolone sodium. The liver function tests showed a marked improvement with this therapy, and the gastric ulcer healed. The possible advantages of steroid administration by suppositories are discussed.
