and one that i was just asked the other day at the pharmacy. long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (ppis) appears safe and all of the studies addressing long-term use have a follow-up of 10 years or less. there is still a need for studies that look at long-term use -- over 10 years. if you have any questions talk to your pharmacist. we are happy to help.
what are the side effects of taking a proton-pump inhibitor for a long time?
