PPIs Have It: Does Tegoprazan Affect Gastric Emptying and Produce Dyspeptic Symptoms?

摘要

The potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) are a novel class of potent antisecretory drugs that unlike the proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are not dependent on activated proton pumps, acting near maximally from the first dose, a pharmacokinetic advantage over PPIs. Tegoprazan, a novel P-CAB, offers potent and rapid acid suppression without delaying gastric emptying, distinguishing it from PPIs. This commentary contextualizes these results within the broader landscape of functional dyspepsia management, highlighting the potential benefits of tegoprazan in patients requiring antisecretory therapy, emphasizing the need for further research into its long-term impacts on motility, gut microbiota composition, and symptomatology. This analysis underscores how P-CABs may redefine antisecretory therapies.
