Title: Proton pump inhibitor-induced hypomagnesemic hypoparathyroidism. Author: Swaminathan K. Journal: Indian J Pharmacol; 2015; 47(3):330-1. PubMed ID: 26069375.

Hypomagnesemic hypoparathyroidism has been reported with different proton pump inhibitors with prolonged oral use. We report the first reported case of possible such effect with intravenous preparation of proton pump inhibitor. This case report raises awareness among physicians worldwide of this often unknown association, as life-threatening cardiac and neuromuscular complications can arise with unrecognized hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia with proton pump inhibitors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
