First suspected case of PPI-triggered parasomnia
The 65-year-old patient's nocturnal shouting and dream enactment began when she started high dose omeprazole, her UK doctors say
Doctors are reporting the first suspected case of parasomnia caused by high dose omeprazole after treating a woman who jumped out of bed and ran into a wall while sleeping.
The 65-year-old was referred to the sleep clinic at Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge, UK, for evaluation of abnormal behaviours at night that sometimes led to minor injuries.
