FDA approval of lansoprazole
Lansoprazole has received FDA approval for several indications, including the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), the healing and maintenance of erosive esophagitis, the treatment of certain stomach ulcers, and the treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
Active ingredient of lansoprazole and mechanism of action
Lansoprazole belongs to a class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The active ingredient in lansoprazole is lansoprazole itself. It works by reducing the production of acid in the stomach by inhibiting the proton pump in the gastric parietal cells. This helps alleviate symptoms and promote healing of certain gastrointestinal conditions.
Uses of lansoprazole
Lansoprazole reduces the amount of acid in your stomach and is primarily used for the treatment of GERD, which includes the relief of heartburn, regurgitation, and other symptoms associated with excessive stomach acid. It is also used for the healing and maintenance of erosive esophagitis, the treatment of certain stomach ulcers, gastric ulcers, and duodenal ulcers caused by H. pylori infection, and the treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
Forms of lansoprazole
Lansoprazole is available in the form of delayed release oral capsules and orally disintegrating tablets (SoluTab). The specific strength and formulation will depend on the prescribed dosage and indication.
Dosage of lansoprazole
The dosage of lansoprazole will vary depending on the specific indication and individual patient factors. If needed antacids may be taken alongside this medication. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
Store lansoprazole at room temperature. Take lansoprazole capsules whole. Do not crush, chew, break, or open the capsules. If you forget to take your medication, take it as soon as you remember, but skip the missed dose if it’s almost time for your next dose.
