Overprescribing proton pump inhibitors [PDF]
Proton pump inhibitors are one of the most frequently prescribed classes of drug in the world because they combine a high level of efficacy with low toxicity. In 2006, expenditure on these drugs was £425m (€595m; $872m) in England1 and £7bn globally.2 Yet studies consistently show that proton pump inhibitors are being overprescribed worldwide in both ...
