Reduce unnecessary use of proton pump inhibitors
How should we change our practice? In people who are on long term PPIs, identify those who are candidates for PPI deprescribing (box 2).
Continuation or deprescribing of proton pump inhibitors: A consult patient decision aid
Introduction Many patients continue on long-term proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy unnecessarily.1 Evidence-based guidance suggests attempting to reduce or stop PPIs in patients whose symptoms abate and have no indication for long-term use.2 Patients may therefore be faced with the decision to continue or reduce PPI use. Deprescribing is the planned, supervised dose reduction or stopping of a medication (for PPIs: lower dose or use “on demand” [as needed]).
Deprescribing Guidelines: Value of an Interactive Mobile Application
Abstract Introduction: We developed a new channel on a mobile app as a continuing education tool to augment the use of deprescribing guideline content in clinical practice. In this research brief, we describe the reach and adoption of channel content, as well as user feedback. Methods: Using Google Analytics, we counted page views of the website (deprescribing.org) where the app was promoted. We calculated total app downloads, monthly active users, and guideline-specific page views.
