Jourdi G, Hulot JS, Gaussem P. An update on oral antiplatelet drug interactions with proton pump inhibitors: what are the risks? Expert Opin Drug Metab Toxicol 2024:1-16.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aspirin and anti-P2Y12 are widely prescribed in cardiovascular patients, often in combination with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to limit the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleedings. The potential interaction between PPIs and antiplatelet agents has been widely discussed, but doubts remain as to whether PPIs may reduce the cardiovascular protection provided by aspirin, prasugrel, ticagrelor, and clopidogrel. AREAS COVERED Many pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) studies have confirmed the interaction, especially between PPIs and clopidogrel, but with uncertain consequences on clinical outcomes. Therefore, we aimed to summarize the evidence for the widespread combined use of oral antiplatelet drugs and PPIs, to outline the current evidence supporting or opposing drug-drug interaction, and to discuss the clinical implications of such interactions. EXPERT OPINION A large body of evidence describes the PK/PD interaction of antiplatelet drugs with PPIs and its potential role in increasing clinical cardiovascular adverse events, but no solid clinical data have confirmed these effects. In the light of the published studies, there seems to be no restriction on the choice of PPI with aspirin, prasugrel, and/or ticagrelor. The choice of a PPI with no (or minimal) interference with the hepatic cytochrome P450 2C19 is preferred in patients receiving clopidogrel.

Proton Pump Inhibitor Use and the Risk of Cardiovascular Complications and Death in Older Adults with Diabetes: A Population-Based Cohort Study. Drugs Aging 2024; 41:239-249.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The unfavorable effect of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes and mortality was reported in the general population. We investigated the impact of PPIs on CV outcomes and total mortality in older people with diabetes mellitus (DM) for whom evidence is missing. METHODS Using administrative health databases of the Lombardy Region, we analyzed the risk of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke and total mortality in individuals with DM (≥65 years of age) exposed to PPIs in 2015 and followed up to 2021. The outcomes were analyzed using a multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model to compute hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). HRs between PPI users and non-users were also estimated in selected subgroups. A sensitivity analysis was also performed in a 1:1 propensity score matching population. RESULTS A total of 284,068 patients were included in the analysis (49.4% PPI users, 50.6% non-PPI users). A higher prevalence of comorbidities and medications was reported in PPI users as compared with non-users. During a median follow-up of 6.7 years, the use of PPIs was associated with a higher risk for ischemic stroke (HR 1.14, 95% CI 95% 1.08-1.20), MI (HR 1.36, 95% CI 1.31-1.41) and total mortality (HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.22-1.26). These risks were higher in PPI users regardless of the PPI type. Among sexes, previous CV diseases, and insulin subgroups, the use of PPIs was correlated with a statistically significant increased risk of ischemic stroke in men, in individuals without a history of CV disease, and in those who were not treated with insulin. A significantly higher risk of MI was associated with PPIs for all subgroups, as well as for total mortality, with the exception of patients with a previous history of CV diseases. The sensitivity analysis confirmed the results of the unmatched cohort. CONCLUSIONS Our findings confirmed an increased risk of CV events and all-cause mortality in a large population of older adults with DM exposed to PPIs. This could have an important impact on public health and costs for National Health Service, therefore a regular assessment of PPI appropriateness is recommended, particularly in this population.
