PPIs and clopidogrel
theheart.org — “The use of omeprazole significantly reduced the antiplatelet activity of clopidogrel, even with a high maintenance dose of the drug, and other PPIs, such as pantoprazole, should be preferred in clopidogrel-treated patients, according to investigators.” View full resource at theheart.org

Clopidogrel and PPIs
theheart.org — “Among discharged ACS patients prescribed the two drugs, there was a 25% increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes compared with those taking clopidogrel alone. (Ho PM et al. JAMA 2009; 301:937-944.)” View full resource at theheart.org

Clopidogrel and PPIs
theheart.org — “UPDATED WITH COMMENTARY // The findings support suspicions that the drug combination diminishes the beneficial effect of the antiplatelet therapy and increases the risk of future events, say researchers.

Clopidogrel-PPI interaction?
theheart.org — “The European Medicines Agency has now followed suit with the US FDA and issued a warning discouraging concomitant use of clopidogrel and PPIs, but some experts believe the issue has been overhyped.” View full resource at theheart.org
