Omeprazole was safely reused in a rhabdomyolysis patient associated with proton pump inhibitors: A case report

Key Clinical Message Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used in the clinical treatment of abnormal gastric acid secretion and gastric acid related diseases. There are disputes about blood purification and PPIs reuse in patients with PPIs‐induced rhabdomyolysis. Herein we reported an 84‐year‐...

description Key Clinical Message Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used in the clinical treatment of abnormal gastric acid secretion and gastric acid related diseases. There are disputes about blood purification and PPIs reuse in patients with PPIs‐induced rhabdomyolysis. Herein we reported an 84‐year‐old woman with a 10‐year history of coronary heart disease and gastric acid. After 18 days of omeprazole therapy, the blood myoglobin of the patient rose progressively. Laboratory examination confirmed rhabdomyolysis, and PPIs‐induced rhabdomyolysis was considered. Atorvastatin was initially discontinued. Additionally, omeprazole was altered to iprazole. Since blood myoglobin continued to exceed the highest value identified, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and hemoperfusion (HP) were administrated. When PPIs‐induced rhabdomyolysis was considered, iprazole was discontinued. Two days after discontinuation of iprazole, blood myoglobin continuously decreased. After rhabdomyolysis was resolved, omeprazole was reused, and rhabdomyolysis did not reoccur. PPIs in combination with statins increase the risk of rhabdomyolysis. In the present case, switching to another PPIs or CRRT and HP therapy did not alleviate rhabdomyolysis. Rhabdomyolysis caused by statins is countless, but other reasons cannot be overlooked. In any case, the removal of etiology is the primary component of the treatment of rhabdomyolysis. When rhabdomyolysis is alleviated, PPIs can be reused safely under close monitoring.
