Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are exposed to more proton pump inhibitor (PPI)s compared to non-CKD patients

Proton pump inhibitor use is associated with incident chronic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease progression and end-stage renal disease. However, the extent of proton pump inhibitor prescriptions to chronic kidney disease patients is still unclear. In a retrospective study, we enrolled patients...

Description
Summary:Proton pump inhibitor use is associated with incident chronic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease progression and end-stage renal disease. However, the extent of proton pump inhibitor prescriptions to chronic kidney disease patients is still unclear. In a retrospective study, we enrolled patients (>18 years old) who received proton pump inhibitor in the out-patient setting from 2014 through 2015. All data was obtained from electronical medical records of Soonchunhyang Medical Center. The prescription patterns and characteristics of proton pump inhibitors were analyzed according to individual estimated glomerular filtration rate of the patients. During the study period 178,228 patients visited the out-patient clinic. Proton pump inhibitors were prescribed to 9,109 (5.11%) patients. In our sample, 50% were females and 9.8% were chronic kidney disease (eGFR
