Abstract

Pill-induced esophagitis is a well-recognized cause of dysphagia and odynophagia. Various medications are known to cause pill esophagitis, but potassium chloride is the prototype. Increasing numbers of patients are being treated with diuretic agents, and, as a result, potassium replacement is extremely common in clinical practice. The exact incidence of pill-induced esophagitis is unknown.
