Lansoprazole targets the final step of acid production in the stomach, providing a more comprehensive suppression of gastric acid secretion compared to antacids and H2-receptor antagonists. Its ability to significantly reduce stomach acidity helps in the treatment of ulcers and minimizes the risk of their recurrence. Additionally, by lowering acid levels, lansoprazole assists in the relief of symptoms such as heartburn and acid reflux, improving patients’ quality of life.

Description

Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medication primarily used for treating and managing gastrointestinal disorders such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. By inhibiting the hydrogen/potassium ATPase enzyme system on the gastric parietal cell surface, lansoprazole effectively reduces gastric acid secretion. This action not only aids in alleviating symptoms associated with acid-related disorders but also promotes healing of the gastric mucosa, making it highly effective for long-term management of these conditions.
