The antiulcerogenic effect of two flavonoids, quercetin and naringenin, in acute gastric ulcer (cold‐restraint and pylorus‐ligated) has been investigated. In both models quercetin and naringenin presented a significant decrease in ulcer index with respect to the control group. Nevertheless, in the Shay‐ligated method no decrease in either volume, acidity or pepsin were observed, however, a significant difference was found in histamine secretion values.
