Brief Summary: Rationaleobjective This study hypothesizes that offering patient-tailored and dosed information on PPI discontinuation in patients with inappropriate chronic PPI use will result in an increased discontinuation rate when compared to a conventional information folder offering all information on discontinuing inappropriate PPI use at once

Study design Multicenter randomized controlled trial

Study population A minimum 152 patients with chronic PPI use without a valid indication for chronic PPI use according to the NHG-guidelines will be included Possible participants will be identified at the outpatient clinics of the departments of Internal Medicine Gastroenterology Rheumatology and Nephrology in the Radboud University Medical Center Canisius Wilhelmina Hospital and Sint Maartenskliniek

Intervention Timely informing patients on discontinuing PPI use through the Patient Journey App

Control Conventional information consisting of an online information folder on discontinuing PPI use

Inclusion criteria

Patients with daily PPI use for at least 4 weeks
Age 18-70 years

Exclusion criteria

Chronic PPI indication according to NHG-guidelines
Chronic PPI indication according to treating physician despite absence of chronic PPI indication according to NHG-guidelines
Patients that underwent anti-reflux surgery
No understanding of the study or study procedures including the digital application smartphonecomputer skills
No smartphonecomputer available
No informed consent
Limited life span

Primary end point

- Discontinuation of PPI use at 2-month follow-up defined as self-declared intake of a maximum of 1 tablet in the previous 14 days

Secondary end points

Upper gastrointestinal symptoms or disorders that are potentially related to discontinuation of PPI use subdivided as

Upper gastrointestinal symptoms as measured by the Patient Assessment of Gastrointestinal Symptom Severity Score PAGI-SYM
Any upper gastrointestinal event that requires a doctors visit or hospitalization
Potential adverse drug reactions ADRs of PPIs subdivided as

Most prevalent 1-10 ADRs according to the Medicines Evaluation Board1 obstipation diarrhea meteorism abdominal pain nauseavomitus headache
Other potential ADRs requiring a doctors visit or hospitalization The following disorders are considered as potentially related to PPI use any pneumonia gastroenteritis vitamin B12 deficiency iron deficiency calcium deficiency fractures acute interstitial nephritis or hypomagnesaemia
Frequency of PPI use measured monthly during follow-up measured as number of PPI tablets per month
Start of new medication for upper gastrointestinal symptoms other than PPI eg antacids H2-blockers analgesics anti-emetics
Association between successful discontinuation and variables such as gender age fear of ADRs occurrence of potential ADRs or occurrence of rebound effect
Change in lifestyle BMI smoking status and alcohol usage
Patient Journey App usability as measured by the System Usability Score SUS
Self-management behavior as measured by the short Patient Activation Measure PAM-13
Recurrent PPI use defined as the intake of more than 1 PPI tablet in the previous 14 days measured as self-declared intake during follow-up after successful discontinuation during follow-up
