Paragraph 4

Please write a paragraph responding to the discussion bellow. Add citations and references in alphabetical order.

There are some concerns that PPIs may be overprescribed and may predispose patients to GI infections because of the reduction of the normal acid-mediated antimicrobial protection (Lilley, Collins, Harrington, & Snyder, 2011). New concerns have arisen over the potential for long-term users of PPIs to develop osteoporosis, due to the inhibition of stomach acid and the speculation that PPIs speed up bone mineral loss (Lilley et al., 2011).
