NCT ID NCT06129474
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program to help doctors and patients safely reduce or stop taking acid-reducing pills (proton pump inhibitors) when they are no longer needed. About 400 adults in Swiss primary care who take these pills daily will be enrolled. The goal is to see if the program can lower pill use without causing worse heartburn or indigestion.
