Sumario: | Background In this study, we aimed to assess the effectiveness of omeprazole therapy in the management of acid peptic disease (APD) among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Methodology In this multicenter retrospective study, electronic medical records (EMRs) of T2DM patients with APD who were prescribed omeprazole between March 2018 and April 2021 at multiple Indian healthcare settings were reviewed. The resolution of APD symptoms was assessed at visit five (120 days after the index visit) and compared to visit one (index visit). Safety was established in terms of reported adverse events during the study period. Results Overall, 174 patients were included. The majority of patients (63.8%) were males with a mean age of 48.6 ± 11.03 years. After receiving omeprazole therapy, a significant number of patients reported improvement in symptoms such as abdominal pain (98.2%), epigastric burning (74.2%), altered bowel movements (62.1%), and nausea (80.5%) (p < 0.001 for each). Complete resolution was observed in all patients who complained about flatulence (100.0%) and loss of appetite (100.0%) (p < 0.001 for each). The drug was found to be well tolerated. Conclusions Omeprazole therapy was well tolerated and highly effective in resolving APD symptoms among T2DM patients receiving fixed oral hypoglycemic agents. |
