Objectives: This study sought to compare the effect of 2 proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) on platelet response to clopidogrel after coronary stenting for non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE ACS).

Background: Use of omeprazole has been reported to significantly decrease the clopidogrel antiplatelet effect because of cytochrome P450 interaction. Because all PPIs are metabolized by CYP2C19, but to a varying degree, we hypothesized that the reported negative omeprazole-clopidogrel drug interaction may not be caused by a class effect.

Methods: A total of 104 patients undergoing coronary stenting for NSTE ACS were prospectively included and randomized to omeprazole or pantoprazole 20 mg. They received at discharge 75-mg aspirin and 150-mg clopidogrel. Platelet reactivity index (PRI) vasoactive stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) was used to assess clopidogrel response and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced aggregation for platelet reactivity (ADP-Ag).

Results: After 1 month, patients receiving pantoprazole had a significantly better platelet response to clopidogrel as assessed with the PRI VASP: 36 +/- 20% versus 48 +/- 17% (p = 0.007). We identified more clopidogrel nonresponders in the omeprazole group than in the pantoprazole group: 44% versus 23% (p = 0.04), odds ratio: 2.6 (95% confidence interval: 1.2 to 6.2). Conversely, we did not observe any significant difference in platelet reactivity with ADP-Ag between the omeprazole and pantoprazole groups: 52 +/- 15% and 50 +/- 18%, respectively (p = 0.29).

Conclusions: The present findings suggest the preferential use of pantoprazole compared with omeprazole in patients receiving clopidogrel to avoid any potential negative interaction with CYP2C19.

Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are effective treatments for acid-related disorders but may pose tumor risks with long-term use. Current research on PPI-associated tumor adverse events (TAEs) is limited and inconclusive. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the relationship between PPIs and TAEs.

Hepatotoxicity Score: A New Method to Adjust for Use of Potentially Hepatotoxic Medications by Chronic Liver Disease Status.

Pharmacoepidemiol Drug Saf

December 2024

Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a Hepatotoxicity Score to better evaluate the safety of medications affecting the liver, considering the challenge posed by the simultaneous use of other harmful drugs.
  • Researchers analyzed data from the Veterans Health Administration from 2000 to 2021, focusing on 193 medications linked to liver issues and monitoring hospitalization rates for severe liver injuries.
  • Results showed that adjusting for the Hepatotoxicity Score altered the perceived risks of specific drugs like lansoprazole and pantoprazole when compared to omeprazole, suggesting the score can help clarify drug safety in real-world scenarios.

Introduction: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) regulate gastric acid reflux. Dexlansoprazole's efficacy in prolonging acid suppression compared to conventional PPIs and placebo requires evaluation.

Methods: A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, five-way crossover pilot study was conducted on healthy volunteers comparing the potency of dexlansoprazole to conventional PPIs in which five patients were randomized into five treatment cohorts, including dexlansoprazole 60 mg, pantoprazole 40 mg, esomeprazole 40 mg, rabeprazole 20 mg, and placebo, assessing 24-hour intragastric pH using Z/pH Recorder (ZepHr®, Diversatek, Inc.

Pepsin, a unique protease activity at acidic environment in the stomach, can cause chronic inflammation in surrounding tissues after becoming hyperactive lead to enlarged tonsils, vocal fold polyps, laryngopharyngeal cancers, and other diseases. Therefore, design and development of new effective pepsin inhibitors becomes significant. In the present work, we synthesized, and characterized thiophene-based chalcones as anti-pepsin agents.

Objectives: Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) exposure can lead to hyponatraemia, which is a common cause of delirium. An association between PPI exposure and delirium without hyponatraemia has been suggested in the literature. We aimed to describe the association between reports of delirium and PPI exposure and to assess the association between PPI and delirium with and without hyponatraemia.
