ENGLISH ABSTRACT
JOURNAL ARTICLE
[Proton pump inhibitor and bone complications].
Clinical Calcium 2015 November
Many observational studies indicated a significant association between PPI use and increased risk of hip and vertebral fractures, but no evidence of duration effect was founded by meta-analysis. However, observational studies cannot clarify whether the observed epidemiologic association is a causal effect or a result of unmeasured/residual confounding. Furthermore, a mechanism through which PPI increase the risk of fracture has not been proven. Overall, PPI use dose not interfere with calcium absorption in most instances and, therefore, it is unlikely that PPI influence fracture risk through interfering with absorption of dietary calcium. There is no consistent effect of PPI on bone mineral density as assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry testing. Thus, randomized controlled studies are required to confirm of refute these results. At this time, the author does not recommend discontinuing PPI in patients with a history of fracture or those at increased risk of fracture. However, clinicians should still endeavor to avoid using PPI in situations where benefits are minimal or clinical indication are lacking.
