Explain why a proton pump inhibitor, such as the drugPrilosec, can relieve the symptoms of acid reflux.
Some patients take ATP-powered H+ pump inhibitors, also known asproton pump inhibitors (PPIs), to control acid reflux. Predict the effect,if any, of long-term, high-dose use of PPIs on blood Ca2+levels.
