Description
What is Lansoprazole?
Lansoprazole capsules are an acid-reflux treatment that effectively reduces uncomfortable heartburn symptoms.
How does Lansoprazole work?
Lansoprazole capsules are a type of medication called a proton pump inhibitor which works by reducing the amount of stomach acid that is produced. Once the amount of stomach acid is reduced, this will lessen symptoms of acid reflux.

Lansoprazole can be used to treat many conditions that require reducing excess stomach acid. However it may not be suitable for you if the following applies to you:
- If you are allergic to lansoprazole or any of the ingredients in the medication
- If you are allergic to other proton pump inhibitors such as pantoprazole, omeprazole, rabeprazole, esomeprazole etc.
- If you taking any medicines to treat HIV e.g nelfinavir
- taking Rifampicin
- have severe liver problems
The above list is not exhaustive, always consult your doctor before commencing a new treatment with lansoprazole.
