Byline: ANI Washington, Nov 2 (ANI): Researchers have warned that despite being highly effective for many patients, unexpected consequences are emerging in patients who are prescribed proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for reflux diseases.
Simon Lowth, the group's new finance director, said recent events in the US market for proton pump inhibitors - the group of drugs that reduce gastric acid production - could have an impact.
Prescriptions for proton pump inhibitors have superseded those for all other acid-inhibiting agents and now account for more than 90 per cent of the NHS drug budget for treating indigestion (also called dyspepsia), they said.
