Lansoprazole

About Lansoprazole

Lansoprazole is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It works by reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach. This can help with conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), ulcers, and other stomach issues caused by excessive stomach acid. Lansoprazole is suitable for adults who experience heartburn, acid reflux, or stomach ulcers.

Dosage and usage

For adults, the typical dose of Lansoprazole is 15-30 mg once a day before a meal. Your doctor may adjust the dose based on your condition. It's important to take Lansoprazole exactly as prescribed and not exceed the recommended dosage. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. The effects of Lansoprazole can last up to 24 hours. If you experience any unusual symptoms or side effects, contact your healthcare provider.
