Abstract:
ObjectiveTo discuss the hematological adverse reactions of oral omeprazole administration with convention dosage and treatment course in aged patients.MethodsFour hundred and nine cases of reflux esophagitis by endoscopic diagnosis from Beijing Hospital during January 2000 to December 2010 were divided into three groups according to their ages: group A ( 168 cases) aged from 60 to 69 years,group B ( 152 cases) aged from 70 to 79 years and group C (89 cases) aged equal to or above 80 years.Each group of patients was randomly divided into three subgroups,A 1 ( 56 cases),B 1 ( 51 cases) and C 1 ( 30 cases ) were administered with oral omeprazole,20 mg,bid; A2 ( 56 cases ),B2 ( 51 cases ) and C2 ( 30 cases ) were administered with oral famotidine,20 mg,bid; A3 ( 56 cases),B3 ( 50 cases),C3 ( 29 cases ) and all above subgroups were administered with oral sucralfate,10 ml,tid.The treatment course lasted for one month.The clinical efficacy,WBC count,RBC count,the Hemoglobin level,platelet count,as well as the prothrombin time,thrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,fibrinogen,Plasma fibronectin and serum D-Dimer were tested and compared after 10-days and 30-days treatment.ResultsAfter the treatment,all the patients had alleviated symptoms,to varied extend,especially in subgroups treated with oral omeprazole and sucralfate.After 30 days' treatment,blood WBC counting in B1 subgroup declined to lower than normal values in two cases; PLT counting drops in 1 case; blood WBC dropped in 6 cases and PLT dropped in4 cases of the C1 subgroup;blood WBC counting dropped in 1 case and PLT dropped in 2 cases of the C2 subgroup.Hemoglutination did not show significant change in all groups (P > 0.05 ).Conclusion The hematological adverse reactions of oral omeprasole in aged patients,under convention dosage and treatment course,occured with age increase,especially for blood WBC and platelet counting.
