Drug Utilization and Evaluation of Proton Pump Inhibitors in Inpatients With Gastric Disorders-a Case Study

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: This prospective observational study assessed the prescribing pattern and rational use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in 60 hospitalized patients with acid-related gastric disorders. Pantoprazole was the most frequently used PPI, mainly administered orally. The study identified inappropriate use of injectable PPIs and deviations from recommended treatment guidelines. These findings highlight the importance of promoting rational prescribing practices and conducting regular drug utilization reviews to improve PPI therapy.
