This is just one of many cases (over 8) where I prescribed Arnica 1M (Arnica1000c) in the Wet dose to resurrect a patient who was immobile after a stroke. (Ischemic (Left) MCA Infarct.)

After reading your reply I had started giving the medicine Arnica 1 M in wet dose twice to my aunt from 28th June 2016. I wrote to you giving all the medical facts regarding her to get a more accurate feed back. From the time you asked to give the medicine thrice a day, I have increased the no. of doses.

Before starting the medicine she was unresponsive lying down on bed with her mouth open and a fixed stare. Now her right hand ( which was paralyzed) is moving, she is trying to move her fingers and holds on to the side of her bed or our hand, the fixed stare has gone, she spits out food when its not to her liking, tries to talk, and responds when spoken to.

June 28 2016

I do wish that I can help your aunt but I do not think that I can do so as you have consulted me far too late. You may however give her Arnica 1M in the Wet dose thrice daily as it may stimulate her brain to function.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

I AM COPYING THE CONVERSATION I HAD WITH RUCHI JAIN FROM JUNE 29 WHERE HE REPORTED THAT HIS MOTHER HAD SUFFERED FROM A VERY HIGH BLOOD SUGAR LEVEL OF OVER 359 AND WAS HOSPITALISED FOR 6 DAYS TILL HER BS LEVEL DROPPED DOWN TO 102 WHEN SHE WAS DISCHARGED.

JULY 5 2016
“My mother was discharged from the hospital on Saturday evening.

I am giving her Arnica 6c in the morning and at night before sleeping and Nat Phos 6x thrice after meals.

Within 6 days of giving the medicines as adviced by you, the sugar level has dropped to 106, as at 7.00 pm today, and INSULIN INJECTIONS HAVE BEEN STOPPED COMPLETELY SINCE YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. I truly believe that this is the result of medicines advised by you.”

You have not given me any details of your mother’s Diabetes except for the record of her current position in hospital.

I would like to have information of her age, and for how long she has suffered from Diabetes and what treatment she received from her doctors with reports of their diagnosis.

In the meanwhile you can give her a teaspoonful of Arnica 6c in the Wet dose every 3 hours made as follows.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

I have just read your report of her ACIDOSIS which I did not notice up to now.
Can you give me more data on this problem which is rare with the doctor’s diagnosis and the drugs prescribed.
She will continue to take all the drugs prescribed by her doctors and you will report her response to me in 24 hours when I expect to have some news of a lower BS level after the Arnica takes effect.

Dear Sir,

My mother has no earlier history of diabetes.Till the day she was hospitalised we never knew about it nor did any doctor suggested that we get her checked for sugar. She was not feeling like eating for last 15-20 days and had urge for chilled water. She was losing weight at a great speed. Worried I took her to hospital for glucose drips, where she collapsed, losing all sense of directions and questions and fell unconcious. The doctor immediately admitted her to icu for severe acidosis. I have photographs of doctors treatment so far – 76 pages. Please guide on how I should send them to you- as there is no provision to submit them here.

I appreciate your prompt response Sir. I will start Arnica 6 c immediately.

With Regards and appreciation

I cannot possibly read 76 pages of data from her doctors as I just do not have the time to do so. I am 86 years old and am not a professional Homeopath as Homeopathy to me is only a Hobby which I have used and prescribed to suffering humanity with some success as although I first studied it 40 years ago, I discovered that classical homeopathy was not as effective as my “Joepathy” (Google) to cure the suffering patient. I shall however welcome an abridged version of the treatment and the drugs used which I would like to study to map out the therapy her doctors are using to help her.

I responded in a few minutes as I realized that your post needed an immediate response from me.

I prescribe Nat Phos 6x extensively to help GERD or Hyperacidity in the stomach and it does so very effectively. Your mother suffers from Acidosis which is defined:

“Acidosis is an increased acidity in the blood and other body tissue (i.e. an increased hydrogen ion concentration). If not further qualified, it usually refers to acidity of the blood plasma.”

I have never encountered it in the past but I cannot help wondering if it can help her Acidosis. I shall copy below the notes of Dr Scheussler about 150 years ago on Nat Phos 6x and shall leave it to you and perhaps your doctors to evaluate it as a possible remedy for her Acidosis.

All I can state is that it is an incredible remedy (Not a Drug) which works in some wondrous way to CURE excess acid in the stomach. I hope and pray that it can help your mother.

Natrium Phosphoricum
Notes by Dr Schuessler

Sodium and Phosphate ions are to be found in our body in the muscle, nerve and brain cells, in the blood corpuscles and in the tissue fluids. According to Dr Schuessler, Nat Phos splits the lactic acid, which is produced by the work of muscles into carbonic acid and water. The carbonic acid is absorbed by the sodium phosphate and brought to the lungs where it is eliminated in the process of breathing. If sodium phosphate is lacking, there results an excess of lactic acid and consequently a sour taste, heart burn, sour stools, vomiting of sour, caseous matter, particularly in babies who are overfed with sugar and milk. If lactic acid reaches the lymphatic glands, the albumin of the lymph glands coagulates and the gland begins to swell. In the initial stages of swelling of the lymphatic glands therefore, Nat Phos has a healing effect because it can split lactic acid. Nat Phos further assures that the uric acid of the blood which is formed by the splitting up of the albuminous substance is kept in solution and secreted by the kidneys. Should this not be the case, uric acid will be deposited in the joints. The sequels are Rheumatism. Gout, Sciatica, Lumbago. In the Gall, Nat Phos saponifies the fatty acids which have been consumed with the food. It is hence indicated against digestive disturbances resulting from excessive consumption of fat.

Re: question for joe re: gerd remedy
From Joe De Livera [Log on to view profile] on 2006-07-16

I am almost embarrassed by the reports in the posts above on the successful outcome of cases of GERD which I treated with my default remedies Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30. I have always maintained that I am not a qualified homeopath but I do have the dedication to this science which has given me the opportunity of using many remedies for ailments that are not listed in the classical texts as a result of which I have been marked as one who rocks the homeopathic boat and is perhaps the reason for the wide spread criticism that I often encounter even on this forum by some pseudo classical types.

I felt that I should take this opportunity of once again projecting my viewpoint on the use of the Non classical approach towards healing which I am aware is held in utter scorn by the classical school of homeopaths who would never even dream of using simple remedies in the manner that I do to heal patients who usually come to Homeopathy as a last resort when after years of being under treatment from gastric specialists who would delight in prescribing various drugs that are used in medicine for GERD like Nexium, Prilosec, Tagamet, and Zantac to name only a few, all of which are expensive and are H2 blockers and operate by reducing the flow of acid in the stomach. They use these drugs when it is discovered that the patient does not react to the OTC drugs bases on Aluminium Hydroxide which were popular up to about a decade ago which operate by neutralizing the acidity in the stomach. All these powerful drugs serve only as palliatives and can by no means be considered as a cure of GERD in any form. They also have known side effects which are too numerous to list here. They all are only palliatives and members would have read on this and other threads how many patients have suffered for years, even up to 45 years with GERD, only to experience the blessed relief that my treatment of this seemingly chronic disease which sometimes ends in cancer, when in a few weeks on Nat Phos and Arnica they are able to return to normal health which is the right of every human being.

It is a matter of concern to me personally to note the reaction of the classical homeopathic fraternity to the methodology I use to treat ailments. I have no quarrel with them but I do resent their continued attacks on other forums which I have stopped visiting as I spent too much time in defending my position of treating the disease instead of virtually going round the bush and using the ‘constitutional remedy’ approach to solve a problem which I have proved is not at all necessary to cure a disease like GERD or others that I specialize in and which members of this forum may be aware of.

I do not rule out the use of the classical approach to cure but I feel that it is time that the classical homeopathic fraternity wakes up and condescends to use methods similar to my own which is to treat the disease, after taking into account the various factors that cause it, if it is considered pertinent to the diagnosis. The point that I wish to convey is that if a certain remedy has been proved to help a patient who suffers from GERD there is no possible excuse that can be made by the homeopath to use other remedies purported to be the classically sanctioned remedy merely because they are listed in the Homeopathic texts. Medicine and Homeopathy are progressing forward daily and with it new discoveries are made in both sciences. I believe that it would be foolish for the respective science to not use a drug or remedy merely because it is not officially sanctioned and permitted to be used if it has been discovered to also help the ailment being treated.

I can think of another serendipitous discovery on my part of using Arnica for the control of Diabetes. I had given this remedy to a Type I Diabetic to help cure his non healing wound and he discovered that his blood sugar level had dropped in a remarkable manner that he had not experienced ever before. Arnica is now being used by many homeopaths both here in Sri Lanka and in India and I presume in other parts of the world after I first announced my discovery on the Internet.

I do hope that others too will follow my example and not hesitate to use a remedy in the manner that I have done and if they too discover a response to a remedy that is not listed, I hope that they too will share their discovery with others on forums such as these.

I believe that this will help the forward march of this precious science into the future.

Natrum phos (sodium phosphate)

As defined in Scheussler’s Biochemistry, this cell salt’s primary role in the body is to decompose acids. Thus its remedy, Nat phos, offers an extremely safe way to treat a range of acid-related conditions in all ages and stages of life.

The sodium phosphate in our digestive tracts breaks down stomach acids and regulates bile. When overwhelmed by fatty, bitter or sugar-filled foods and beverages, including alcohol, the body cannot make enough sodium phosphate to handle all the stomach acids needed for digestion. As a result, we get acid symptoms like heartburn, diarrhea, gas, sour belching and a yellow coating on the back of the tongue. In babies, Nat phos is a very natural gentle way to relieve colic, sour vomiting and sour smelling green diarrhea. In children, Nat phos can ease the crash and headaches of sugar highs. As a safe source for heartburn relief during pregnancy, Nat phos is irreplaceable. Top of the head headaches and sick headaches with sour vomiting find relief in it whether due to morning sickness, dietary excesses or illness.

The sodium phosphate in our muscles keeps them limber and gliding smoothly. When exercise or shock deprives muscles of oxygen, they fill with lactic acid, cramp and stiffen until sodium phosphate breaks down the acids. Thus Nat phos can save hours of discomfort after workouts, weight-lifting or accidents.

Sodium phosphate is also critical in our joints, to keep them free of acidic deposits. Thus the remedy supports balancing relief for stiff or inflamed joints.

When ignored, acidity leads to sick headaches, fatigue, sluggish sour digestion, stiff musculoskeletal symptoms and head colds with yellow mucus and a painful cough. In any of these circumstances, the cell salt remedy Natrum phos, can help the body find its natural balance of sodium phosphate and acidity.

The need for Nat phos’ help is most marked by two typical symptoms of acid buildup and resulting congestion: sourness, sour belching, vomiting, sour smelling perspiration; and yellowness, yellow mucus, a yellow coating on the back of the tongue, and yellow skin issues. Nat phos symptoms usually worsen after eating bitter or fatty foods and from mental exertion. Those most in need grow fearful at night and suffer nervous fatigue, indifference and mental dullness.

Breaking down stomach acids, lactic acids and acidic deposits is the specialty of this cell salt and its source nutrient. In digestion, it offers balancing relief when fatty or sugary foods lead to sugar highs, heartburn, gas or diarrhea. If muscles and joints cramp and stiffen after shock or exercise, it helps break down lactic acid and relieve pain. It relieves a range of other acidity induced symptoms including: sick headaches, sluggish sour digestion, stiff joints, fatigue and indifference, especially if tongue has a yellow coating.

Dear Sir,

I am one of your earlier patients who has benefited from “Joepathy” in GERD, after suffering for years with the problem.I keep Nat Phos 6x with me all the time and still use it on SOS basis. I have great faith in you. I will follow your advice and start Nat Phos 6x also along with Arnica 6.

Is Arnica 6 and 6 c same? I could get Arnica 6 here. I have give her the first dose. Reading before the dose was 222, doctors have increased insulin to 25 ml. I will report the BS level after 24 hrs as per your instructions.

Good to hear from an ex patient.

Glad to learn that you are willing to experiment with Nat Pho 6x for your mother.

I do not envisage any negative after effect as it is not a drug and you are a witness to its almost miraculous effect.

Arnica 6 = 6c.

My theory is that it is her Acidosis which is the root cause of her Diabetes.
If I am proved correct it will be another first for Joepathy.

Dear Sir
Iam 55 years old.Iam facing LIver cyst problem. I have done scan of whole abdomen which shows 5×4.3cm cyst.Already I have a problem of gastric for more than a year. From your website Iam using natphos 6x and Arnica 30c . Recently checked master Blood test which shows all the parameters are normal including Liver function test.please suggest

My Response

I am delighted to know that even without consulting me for your Liver Cyst you stated “From your website Iam using natphos 6x and Arnica 30c”.

I presume that you are aware that it was your Chronic GERD or Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease that was the cause of your Liver Cyst to which you referred:
“I have a problem of gastric for more than a year.”

You also stated:
“Recently checked master Blood test which shows all the parameters are normal including Liver function test.”

Since you stated that your Liver Function Test is NORMAL, I can presume that your Liver Cyst has disappeared.

You are the first patient on my Website who has CURED himself of a very serious problem WITHOUT CONSULTING ME by using the same therapy with Nat Phos and Arnica that I have prescribed to thousands of patients including both adults and babies for GERD.

I am indeed very happy that you thought of informing me of your historic achievement as your Liver Cyst which the scan showed was 5×4.5 cm was at a dangerous size which could have burst with disastrous results.

I would appreciate if you will please give me more details of your Liver Cyst and your GERD. I would like to have information on the following:

For how long have you suffered from GERD?
When were you informed of your Liver Cyst?
Can you describe in detail what you suffered from and for how long?
What drugs were prescribed?

You will have to take Nat Phos 6x with Arnica 30c in the Wet dose for many months into the future and you will please report your progress from time to time on my Website.

I shall for the record copy my default therapy for GERD which will help you in the future.

It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

The remedies you will order are as follows:

Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

You can also take a PROBIOTIC like Bifilac. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the gut and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

Please observe the following simple rules:

Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

You are invited to visit this thread as it traces back the history of patients who used Nat Phos 6x with Arnica 30c in the Wet dose which when used jointly have virtually saved the lives of the many patients who used it and confirmed their own experience in the 14 pages of this thread on the ABC.

Hi Joe,
You recommended that I take Nat Phos 6x for my acid reflux. Is there anything else I should be doing while taking this remedy? should I cut out any foods or drinks? should I expect immediate results? Or does it take time? I have the type of reflux that is in my throat. I have had it for about 3 months. Please advice.

thank you

Re: question for joe re: gerd remedy From Joe De Livera on 2006-06-06
You should observe relief within 15 minutes of taking Nat Phos 6x. I would suggest that you use 3 tablets at the beginning of your treatment and later when you feel it stabilizing you then reduce the dose to 2 after meals.

Do not eat large meals and of course no excess fat in them.

Take Arnica 6c in the wet dose 1 teaspoonful twice daily. This will help to rebuild the damaged lining of your esophagus which in many cases has been eroded over many years of treatment of GERD with drugs like Nexium, Prevacid all based on Omeprazole which unfortunately is habit forming and expensive.

The great advantage in using the Nat Phos / Arnica therapy is that the patient will be CURED of his ailment in a few weeks which can never happen by using the drugs used in modern medicine.

Joe,

I was in United States for 5 months. I had taken with me some homeopathic and Biochemic medicines including Nat Phos 6x.

Thanks Joe, your line of treatment with Nat Phos 6x for GERD and Hyperacidity did cure 11 people there. By the way I don’t treat for money. I love to see people being cured.

The results were so quick and convincing that these guys begged for more stocks which of course I will send them (free) shortly.

I am glad to note that you have also had considerable success in treating 11 patients suffering from GERD. In the majority of these cases I am confident that they were CURED and that their condition was not controlled as it usually is when using the drugs like Nexium which are unable to stablilze the stomach as Nat Phos 6x does.

You will notice that I have used NP to stabilize the stomach and Arnica 30c to help with the cure of the Esophagus
with the Sphincter muscle which are usually damaged by the gastric juices. It is the combination of both remedies that completes the cure which usually takes about 6 weeks.

It is not advisable to overdose with NP as many have complained of a bitter taste in their mouths.

No other damage seems to be done and as long as the patient sees some benefit from its use, it is perfectly safe to do so.

(1)I have noticed you also recommend use of Arnica 6c in the wet dose to help the process of tissue repair especially in the throat. The dose is 1 teaspoonful of the remedy sipped twice daily.

Are there any particular situations to select between Arnica 6c and Arninca 30c.

(2) I notice you now only suggest using pallets for wet dose preparation.

The original pack from the manufactures such as Schawbe or SBL are in liquid form.
Why you no more like to use 1 drop of the liquid.

For chronic ailments I use Arnica 6c and if it does not help I use the higher 30c potency.

I use the wet dose exclusively for treatment of any ailment as I am convinced after using it for over a year that this is the way to go.

It is unfortunate that most homeopaths use the dry pellets exclusively as they have not discovered that the wet dose after succussion each time is far more effective than the dry. They have also not being instructed to use the wet dose and till this is promoted by the universities, I believe that the dry dose will hold sway.

A point of interest in using the wet dose is that it is very cost effective as only 3 pellets are used in a 500ml bottle of spring water which usually lasts about 3 months while the dry dose will use up the 100 pellets in a vial in a few days.

The liquid form where the remedy is suspended in Ethanol can also be used as I do here in Sri Lanka where I use 2 drops of the Ethanol remedy in a 500ml bottle. I have not observed any difference between the 3 pellets and 2 drops in the bottle.

For Bellz,

I was in US only for 5 months. So I did not have the opportunity to provide this excellent treatment to others who tried to contact me. My aim of visit was not to treat but during my previous visit to US I had really felt sorry that I did not carry any Homeopathic or Biochemicremedies. I was particularly perturbed that the so called classical homeopaths in US fleece the poor patients. Which keeps many patients away from this wonderful line of treatment.

In all 11 cases the relief was quick and permanent.

In fact, I may tell you that I met someone from Bombay India where he had whole lot of tests and investigations done at one of the most prominent hospitals. Even CT scan was done. The allopathic treatment rendered him no benefit. When I met him he was stiff scared to even eat rice and yoghurt as any food would make very uncomfortable.

After two doses on the first day this guy felt relief and by third day he could consume his regular full meal.

As for your problem is concerned, please strictly follow the instructions given to you by JOE and I am sure you will be cured for good.

Pls take good post-treatment care to allow enough time for your body to re-inforce the system.

Hi, I’m new to this forum, actually, I have never been part of any forum but I have been reading the posts on ABC Homeopathy with interest regarding Acid Reflux. (I am 55 and post menopause, 5’5′ and weigh 133 lbs).

I have reflux (heartburn since childhood),and barrett’s esophagus. Also hiatal hernia. I have been on the purple pill and others like it for approx 5 yrs now. The meds work well, however, I have been trying natural remedies for the last two wks. and have stopped taking the prescription. I am being careful since I can’t allow heartburn at all. Have been using organic apple cider vinegar and honey. Sure seem to be drinking alot of honey to put out the fire.

Based on what I read here I have ordered Nat Phox 6X and expect to receive it by next week.

In addition to my digestive mess I also have a prolapsed bladder. I have been researching the use of Sepia as a possibility for help in that area. Is that a wise choice? Can I take it while I am taking Nat Phos 6X for the acid? Is combination safe or should I just work on the acid first and then try to work on the prolapse later.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks. Forgot to mention I do go to Chiropractor and he is trying to put my hiatel hernia back down to assist w/my acid reflux. He told me to pursue homeopathic remedies.

I am copying an article from the CNN Website of yesterday under the Headline:
“Popular medications linked to higher risk of kidney failure”
April 14 2016
(CNN)Taking one of the most-prescribed medications in the world — proton pump inhibitors — might dramatically increase a person’s risk for kidney failure and kidney disease, new research suggests. The study was released Thursday in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology.

Doctors prescribe proton pump inhibitors, also known as PPIs, to help people who suffer from regular heart burn, ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease or acid reflux. They are sold under the names Prevacid, Prilosec, Nexium, Protonix, Aciphex and others. About 15 million Americans have prescriptions for them, although people can get them without a prescription — so the number who use them is likely much higher.
The medications are popular because they relieve symptoms pretty quickly. It was also thought that they had a low toxicity.
Looking at data from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the study’s authors found 173,321 people who used PPIs and 20,270 took a PPI alternative known as histamine H2 receptor blockers. The authors, who work at Washington University in St. Louis and at the Clinical Epidemiology Center at the VA St. Louis Health Care System, analyzed data from these patients five years later.
They found that a large percentage of those patients who were taking PPIs were now having more kidney problems than those patients who took the alternative histamine H2 receptor blockers.

Patients who took PPIs had a 96% increased risk of developing kidney failure and a 28% increased risk of chronic kidney disease compared to the patients who took the histamine H2 receptor blockers.
Earlier studies have shown that taking PPIs have been linked to acute interstitial nephritis, also a problem that may be likely to end in kidney failure. A study that ran online in JAMA in January also found a link between PPIs and a higher risk of chronic kidney disease, also known as CKD.
Like this study, it also was observational and doesn’t provide evidence of causality, but as the earlier study said, “even a casual relationship between PPI use and CKD could have a considerable public health effect given the widespread extent of use.”
Other side effects from taking PPIs include an increased risk of pneumonia, double the risk of infection from C. difficile and a small risk of osteoporosis, earlier studies have shown.
The authors of this research suggest that PPIs are overprescribed. Previous research, including a 2008 study and others have shown the same. The authors of the new study conclude if a person has a prescription for a PPI, it should be used sparingly and only taken for a short period of time.
