Lansoprazole Capsules IP
Lansoprazole Capsules IP is a proton pump inhibitor used to reduce stomach acid and manage acid-related gastrointestinal conditions such as GERD, heartburn, erosive esophagitis, and certain stomach ulcers.
Product Details
Lansoprazole Capsules IP contains lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the production of stomach acid. It is commonly used in the management of acid-related gastrointestinal conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive esophagitis, and certain gastric and duodenal ulcers. It may also be prescribed as part of combination therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection.
Key Benefits
- Helps reduce excessive stomach acid production
- Supports the management of GERD and acid reflux
- Helps relieve acid-related heartburn
- Supports healing of acid-damaged esophageal tissue
- Helps manage certain gastric and duodenal ulcers
- May be used with antibiotics for H. pylori eradication therapy
How It Works
Lansoprazole blocks the gastric proton pump (H+/K+-ATPase) in the stomach lining. By inhibiting this enzyme, it reduces the final stage of stomach acid production. Lower stomach acidity helps relieve acid-related symptoms and supports healing of the esophagus and stomach.
Common Side Effects

- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Flatulence

Important Information
Lansoprazole Capsules IP should be used according to the advice of a qualified healthcare professional. Long-term use may require medical monitoring, as prolonged acid suppression can be associated with conditions such as low magnesium or vitamin B12 levels, bone fractures, and certain gastrointestinal infections. Inform your doctor about other medicines you are taking and any history of liver disease or other medical conditions. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist or if you experience difficulty swallowing, unexplained weight loss, vomiting blood, or black stools.
