Esomeprazole-Induced Chest Pain: A Case of an Unexpected Serious Adverse Reaction to a Proton Pump Inhibitor

Considering the high prevalence and chronic nature of the acid peptic disease, proton pump inhibitors have been extensively u sed and their safety has attracted much attention. Esomeprazole has well- established efficacy and safety in treatment of all clinical manifestations of the acid peptic disease. Cardiovascular safety of esomeprazole and omeprazole appears good and they seem not to increase the risk of adverse cardiac events. We present a patient with a condition that appears to be a case of esomeprazole-induced chest pain with changes that we recorded with the standard 12-lead electrocardiogram which should be related to coronary ischemia but not typical for it.
