Many doctors are getting real comfortable with PPI's for long term use based on the track record that has been established so far. The following is taken directly from Prilosec's home page:

NO SUBSTITUTE FOR EXPERIENCE: Over 17 years of clinical experience with omeprazole.

CONFIDENCE AND RELIABILITY: Over 293 million patient treatments† with omeprazole worldwide.

CLINICAL PERFORMANCE OVER TIME: Excellent long-term safety profile in ongoing studies of patients treated continuously for up to 11 years.
