Proton pump inhibitors use and fracture risk in young adults

Proton pump inhibitors are widely used to treat gastro-intestinal diseases. The safety profiles of long-term use of proton pump inhibitors are a major concern. Recently one cohort study conducted by Fedida et al published in International Journal of Clinical Practice revealed that no significant association could be detected between proton pump inhibitors use and fracture risk in young adults.[1] The similar finding was also observed in older adults.[2, 3] Some points need to be discussed.
