Obtaining the history is the most important aspect of making a diagnosis of peptic ulcer disease. It provides insight into the cause, precipitating factors and associated comorbid conditions.

Past Medical History

A history of epigastric pain, dyspepsia, or prior peptic ulcer may suggest the diagnosis of peptic ulcer disease.^[1]

Medication History

Prior use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is important because these patients have an increased risk of gastric ulcer and a fourfold risk of significant GI bleeding compared with other patients.^[2]

Social History

Alcoholics also frequently have peptic ulcers or gastritis.^[3]^[2]
Cigarette smokers have a significantly higher rate of the recurrent duodenal ulcer as compared with nonsmokers and a history of cigarette smoking should be elicited^[4]^[5]

Family History
