Abstract
Objective: To investigate the scientific literature related to the association between prolonged use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and the risk of kidney disease. Methods: This is an integrative literature review of articles published between 2019 and 2024, in Portuguese or English and with free full text. The guiding question was used: What is the relationship between the prolonged use of PPIs and the increased risk of kidney disease? The research was carried out in December 2024, in the databases of the Virtual Health Library (VHL), SciELO, PUBMED and LILACS, through the Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS): Proton Pump Inhibitors, Chronic Renal Failure, Pharmacovigilance, Long-Term Adverse Effects and Interstitial Nephritis associated with the Boolean operator “AND”. Results: 23 articles met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, in which the risk of developing kidney diseases is associated with the prolonged use of PPIs. Final considerations: PPIs are effective in treating gastrointestinal conditions, but prolonged use is associated with adverse events. Judicious use and continuous monitoring are essential to reduce risks. However, the scarcity of longitudinal studies and the variability in renal monitoring methods make it difficult to generalize the results.
