Therefore, proton pump inhibitors are usually co-prescribed for preventing ulcer bleeding. However, a substantial of recent reports raises concerns on what drug-drug interaction of thienopyridine and proton pump inhibitors may translate into clinical outcomes based on pharmacokinetics evidences. Nevertheless, the effect of co-treatment of Clopidogrel and a proton pump inhibitor on cardiovascular outcomes has been inconsistent and conflicting. A newly published clinical guideline provides some useful recommendations to deal with this challenging clinical situation.9enjournal article
