Post\u2010thyroidectomy hypoparathyroidism and resultant hypocalcemia are common complications associated with prolonged hospitalization and higher costs. The long\u2010term use of proton pump inhibitors has been associated with metabolic disturbances, including hypocalcemia. The purpose of this study is to determine the rate of hypocalcemia following thyroidectomy in patients taking proton pump inhibitors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients treated with total thyroidectomy between 2012 and 2022 were identified via the TriNetX Research Network. The rate of transient (0\u20136\u2009months following thyroidectomy) and permanent (6\u201312\u2009months following thyroidectomy) postoperative hypocalcemia was compared between patients with and without a prescription for proton pump inhibitors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of 33,309 patients, 21.3% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20097081) took proton pump inhibitors before surgery. 50.9% and 10.76% of thyroidectomy patients taking proton pump inhibitors had hypocalcemia compared to 48.3% and 7.22% of patients without proton pump inhibitors at 0\u20131 and 6\u201312\u2009months, respectively. Patients prescribed proton pump inhibitors had a significantly increased risk of experiencing hypocalcemia at 0\u20131, 1\u20136, and 6\u201312\u2009months.
