Oral Proton Pump Inhibitors

There is currently a lack of evidence to suggest superior clinical efficacy of one oral proton pump inhibitor over any other. Proton pump inhibitors display similar doseresponse relationships with similar potencies and efficacies at the equivalent dose. The decision to select one proton pump inhibitor over another is likely to be based on the agents’ licensed indication, patient tolerability an...

Intravenous proton pump inhibitors.

Intravenous (IV) administration of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is a faster way to achieve gastric acid suppression than oral administration of the same agent. Peak suppression after IV administration occurs within hours, compared with several days later after oral administration. Thus the IV route of administration offers a faster onset of gastric suppression, achievement of intragastric pH c...

Proton Pump Inhibitors and Gastritis

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are novel compounds that strongly inhibit the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase in the gastric parietal cells to cause profound suppression of acid secretion. Acid-generating ATPase, also known as vacuolar-type ATPase, is located in the lysozomes of leukocytes and osteoclasts and its activity is also reportedly influenced by treatment with PPIs. This concept is supported by the res...

Hypomagnesemia and proton-pump inhibitors.

INTRODUCTION Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been linked to clinically symptomatic hypomagnesemia. AREAS COVERED We searched Medline database in all languages using 'proton-pump inhibitors, magnesium, hypomagnesemia and hypomagnesemic hypoparathyroidism' as search terms and other articles were identified through searches of the files of the authors and reference lists from relevant article...
