- W204786479 abstract "A considerable proportion of the medication budget of Dutch general practitioners is spent on prescribed long-term acid suppressant drugs. We investigated the magnitude of long-term prescription of acid suppressant drugs in general practice and the frequency and means of confirming the primary working diagnosis.We used a retrospective descriptive study of 24 general practices in the Amsterdam region.We identified those receiving long-term acid suppressant therapy (12 or more weeks/year) from a total of 46,813 patients by extracting data from pharmacy databases.We measured the amount and duration of prescriptions for each medication, indications for prescription, and investigations performed by general practitioners.Of the 46,813 patients, 922 (2%) received long-term acid suppressant therapy. The duration of prescription varied from 12 weeks in 8% of patients to > 52 weeks in 23% of patients (mean = 33 weeks). In 25% of patients, no investigations were performed; 75% of patients underwent endoscopy or ingested a barium meal. The predominant diagnoses in investigated patients were ulcer disease (39%), gastroesophageal reflux disease (49%), and functional dyspepsia (gastritis, normal aspect; 18%). Helicobacter pylori status was available in 29% of patients with ulcer disease. Eradication therapy was reported in 44% of these patients.Among patients of physicians in general practice in the Amsterdam region, 2% used long-term acid suppressants. Patients with ulcer disease may stop taking acid suppressants after apparent successful H pylori eradication. Tapering strategies must be developed for patients with mild reflux disease or functional dyspepsia." @default.
