Background:
Increased con¬cerns rose towards the side effects of chronic use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).The relationship
between prolonged use of PPIs and bone metabolism is still not totally established.
Aim:
Aim of this study is to examine the association between the use of (PPIs) and the risk of development osteoporosis.
Method:
180 adult male rats were assigned to three groups (60 rats each). Group I served as control; whereas, group II (a,
b), (i.p) omeprazole 20 mg/kg/day was administered for four and eight weeks respectively; group III (a, b), (i.p) omeprazole
40 mg/kg/day was given for the same period. At the end of drug treatment, 20 rats from each subgroup were examined for
bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), serum calcium, phosphorus, parathormone, tartrate resistant acid
phosphatase type 5b (TRACP5b), insulin-like growth factor 1(1GF-1) and osteoprotegerin (OPG). The remaining 10 rats from
each subgroup were left without treatment for the next four weeks to detect the reversal effects of the drug.
Results:
BMD and BMC decreased in a dose and time dependent manners with recovery. Serum calcium and phosphate
decreased at the dose 40 mg/kg for eight weeks with recovery of calcium after discontinuation of therapy but not phosphate.
Parathormone increased compared to control with no recovery. TRACP5b increased at 20, 40 mg at eight weeks with no
recovery. IGF1 decreased in dose and time dependent manner, recovery only for 20 mg for four weeks. OPG showed no change.
Conclusion:
The chronic use of high doses of omeprazole could adversely affect bone homeostasis.
