Medicine containing Dexlansoprazole
What is Dexlansoprazole?
Dexlansoprazole belongs to the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) class of medications. It functions by decreasing the secretion of acid within the stomach, providing sustained action to manage symptoms. It is often chosen for conditions where prolonged acid suppression is required to allow tissues to heal effectively.
What Dexlansoprazole is used for
This medication serves to address issues related to excessive stomach acid. It is commonly indicated for patients diagnosed with Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease. Additionally, it is used for the management of Erosive Oesophagitis, assisting in the relief of symptoms and the healing process of the oesophageal lining.
How does Dexlansoprazole work?
Dexlansoprazole works by blocking the enzyme in the stomach wall responsible for the final stage of acid production. By inhibiting this proton pump, it effectively lowers the amount of acid entering the stomach. This reduction addresses irritation and damage, allowing current inflammation to subside over time.
