Abstract

Background: Proton pump inhibitor use and osteoporosis are two of many common comorbid conditions in the elderly. Objective: to investigate the relationship between time and dose of proton pump inhibitor use and osteoporosis, and the risk of bone fractures in elderly people using proton pump inhibitors at the Geriatrics clinic and the Musculoskeletal clinic Joints of Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. Methods: Cross-sectional study was conducted on 220 patients aged 60 years and older, continuously using proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for ≥ 4 weeks within 6 months visiting the University Medical Center. Ho Chi Minh City Pharmacy from December 2022 to June 2023. Results: when the duration of using proton pump inhibitors increases by 1 week from the 10th week, the risk of osteoporosis will increase by 1,088 times ( 95% confidence interval is 1.017 – 1.165) with p = 0.015. No relationship has been recorded between the dosage of Esomeprazole, Pantoprazole, Rabeprazole and osteoporosis in the elderly. No relationship has been recorded between the duration of use of proton pump inhibitors, the dose of Esomeprazole, Pantoprazole, Rabeprazole and the high risk of bone fractures in the elderly. Conclusion: There is a relationship between the duration of use of proton pump inhibitors and the risk of osteoporosis in the elderly.
