Lansec Capsule 30 mg contains Lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) designed to reduce gastric acid secretion. Lansoprazole selectively inhibits the hydrogen-potassium ATPase enzyme system in the stomach's parietal cells, which is the final step in acid production. By controlling excessive stomach acid, Lansec Capsule 30 mg helps relieve symptoms of acid-related gastrointestinal disorders, promotes healing of the stomach and esophagus lining, and prevents complications associated with prolonged acid exposure.

This higher-dose formulation is particularly suitable for patients with more severe acid-related conditions, such as erosive esophagitis, large peptic ulcers, or Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The enteric-coated capsule ensures that the active ingredient passes through the stomach intact and is absorbed in the intestine for optimal therapeutic effect.

Indications

Lansec Capsule 30 mg is indicated for:

• Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): Provides relief from heartburn, acid regurgitation, and esophageal inflammation.

• Erosive esophagitis: Promotes healing of esophageal tissue damaged by stomach acid.

• Peptic ulcer disease: Treats gastric and duodenal ulcers and supports mucosal healing.

• Zollinger-Ellison syndrome: Long-term management of gastric acid hypersecretion.

• Prevention of NSAID-induced ulcers: Reduces the risk of ulcer formation in patients taking long-term NSAIDs.

Mechanism of Action

Lansoprazole works by blocking the proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) in the gastric parietal cells, which is the final common pathway for acid secretion. This action:

• Suppresses gastric acid production: Reduces both basal and stimulated acid secretion.

• Relieves symptoms of acid reflux: Minimizes heartburn, regurgitation, and discomfort.

• Promotes mucosal healing: Protects the stomach, duodenum, and esophagus from acid-induced damage.

Once daily administration of Lansec Capsule 30 mg provides effective acid suppression for up to 24 hours, ensuring consistent therapeutic benefits.

Dosage and Administration

• The usual adult dose is 30 mg once daily, preferably taken in the morning, 30–60 minutes before a meal.

• Capsules should be swallowed whole with water; do not crush, chew, or open the capsule.

• In certain severe cases, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, the dose may be adjusted or divided based on physician recommendation.

• Complete the full course as prescribed to ensure optimal healing and symptom control.

Precautions

Before taking Lansec Capsule 30 mg, consult your doctor if you have:

• Liver dysfunction or impaired hepatic function

• Low magnesium or calcium levels

• Osteoporosis or a history of bone fractures

• Allergic reactions to PPIs or related medications

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding

Long-term therapy may require monitoring of magnesium, vitamin B12, and kidney function. Avoid abrupt discontinuation without consulting a physician.

Use in Pregnancy and Lactation

Lansoprazole should be used during pregnancy only if clearly indicated by a physician. Limited data suggest it is generally safe. Lansoprazole is excreted in breast milk, so breastfeeding is not recommended without medical supervision.
