Lansoprazole

Uses

Lansoprazole is used in the treatment of acidity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and peptic ulcer disease.

How it Works

How Lansoprazole works Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It reduces the amount of acid in the stomach, providing relief from acid-related indigestion and heartburn.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Lansoprazole include nausea, headache, diarrhea, abdominal pain, constipation, and dizziness.

Expert Advice

  • Lansoprazole is a well-tolerated medication that provides long-lasting relief.
  • It should be taken 1 hour before a meal, preferably in the morning.
  • Healthy tips to prevent acidity include:
    • Avoid excessive intake of carbonated beverages, soft drinks, citrus juices, fried foods, and caffeinated beverages such as tea and coffee.
    • Avoid alcohol and smoking.
    • Avoid eating late at night or before bedtime.
  • Inform your doctor if you experience:
    • Watery diarrhea, fever, or persistent stomach pain.
    • No improvement after 14 days of treatment, as this may indicate another underlying issue.
  • Long-term use of Lansoprazole may lead to:
    • Weak bones.
    • Deficiency of minerals such as magnesium.
  • Ensure adequate dietary intake of calcium and magnesium, or take supplements as prescribed by your doctor.
  • Consult your doctor immediately if you develop:
    • Decreased urination.
    • Edema (swelling due to fluid retention).
    • Lower back pain.
    • Nausea.
    • Fatigue.
    • Rash or fever.
  • These symptoms may indicate a kidney problem.
