Brief Summary: A bleeding peptic ulcer remains a serious medical problem with significant morbidity and mortality Endoscopic therapy significantly reduces further bleeding surgery and mortality in patients with bleeding peptic ulcers and is now recommended as the first hemostatic modality for these patients

In the past few years adjuvant use of a high-dose proton pump inhibitor PPI after endoscopic therapy has been endorsed in some studies However low dose of PPI has also been supported in the management of these patients

The investigators enroll 130 patients with active bleeding or nonbleeding visible vessels in this study They are randomly assigned as 40 mgday or 160mgday IV nexium group All patients receive successful endoscopic therapy with heater probe or hemoclip placement

In the low dose group N65 40 mg IV Nexium daily is given for three days Thereafter the patients receive 40 mg nexium orally daily for two months In the large dose group N65 160 mgday continuous infusion is given for three days Thereafter the patients receive 40 mg nexium orally daily for two months

The primary end point is recurrent bleeding before discharge and within 14 days At day 14 volume of blood transfused number of surgeries performed and the mortality rates of the two groups are compared as well
