Risk vs Benefit: You should talk to your physician to assess the benfits of being on PPI. Long term PPI use has potentially been associated with certain mineral deficiencies as well as infections and fractures. The benefits of using these medications may outweigh any potential risks/side effects if your clinical status warrants this. The 2 people best placed to assess this are you and your physician.
