Gastric cancer risk in the elderly is associated with omeprazole use and inversely associated with aspirin use - PubMed
Higher GC rate was associated with omeprazole chronic use and inversely associated with aspirin chronic use relative to omeprazole nonuse in community-dwelling elderly.
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
But Aspirin is soooo bad for the stomach / intestine blablabla. I have no access to the full-text but I would bet it was not funded by the National Cancer Institute.Each year of omeprazole use increased GC risk by 9%, and each year of aspirin use decreased GC risk by 10% among omeprazole chronic users. The lowest rate of GC was found in omeprazole nonusers/ aspirin chronic users, and the highest, in omeprazole chronic users/aspirin nonusers.
