Sucralfate is a mucosal protector. The effects of combinations of \u03b2-blocker, band ligation, and sucralfate (triple therapy) remain unknown. A total of 122 patients with a history of esophageal variceal bleeding were randomized to receive EVL only (group A, 62 patients) or triple therapy (group B, 60 patients). The procedure for the triple therapy included ligation with the addition of sucralfate granules until variceal obliteration. In addition, nadolol was administered during the course of the study or until death. After a median follow-up of 21 months, recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding developed in 29 patients (47%) in group A and 14 patients (23%) in group B (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> = .005). Recurrent bleeding from esophagogastric varices occurred in 18 patients in group A and 7 patients in group B (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> = .001). Twenty-one patients in group A (50%) and 12 patients (26%) in group B experienced variceal recurrence after variceal obliteration (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .05). Treatment failure occurred in 11 patients (18%) in group A and in 4 patients (7%) in group B (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> = .05). Twenty patients from group A and 10 patients from group B died (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> = .08); 9 and 4 of these deaths, respectively, were attributed to variceal hemorrhage (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic> = .26). The combination of ligation, nadolol, and sucralfate (triple therapy) proved more effective than banding ligation alone in terms of prevention of variceal recurrence and upper gastrointestinal rebleeding as well as variceal rebleeding.<\/jats:p>\n
