Practical Aspects of Pathogenetic Therapy for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 55
Abstract
The article deals with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Currently, there is being investigated a large number of new drugs, which can improve the treatment of acid-related disea-ses, but the best acid-reducing drugs yet are proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). In connection with this, the issue what drugs from the IPPs group should be preferred was and remains relevant for practitioners. Given the low potential of drug interactions, pantoprazole may be considered the drug of choice for acid-reducing therapy, especially in elderly patients, usually taking quite a lot of drugs; as well as in patients using drugs with a narrow therapeutic window.
