| Abstract: | A poster presentation regarding use of proton pump inhibitors and effects of amylase and other enzymes. Introduction: The main action of Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) is a long -lasting reduction of gastric acid production by irreversibly blocking the H+/K+-ATPase enzyme of the gastric parietal cells. Aims: To correlate the activities of pancreatic (p-) and total (t-) amylase in patients using PPIs, to compare the effectiveness of different PPIs and different dosage regimens of PPIs. |
