Lavoltidine (INN, USAN, BAN; code name AH-23,844), previously known as loxtidine, is a highly potent and selective H2 receptor antagonist which was under development as a treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease but was discontinued due to the discovery that it produced gastric carcinoid tumors in rodents.[1][2]
