      Highlights

      • •
        A chronic and prolonged reduction of gastric acidity may impair copper absorption.
      • •
        PPIs have already been significantly associated with vitamin B12 deficiency.
      • •
        PPIs may contribute to copper deficiency.
      • •
        The discontinuation of PPIs should be considered in patients with copper deficiency.
