Uses and warnings
No boxed warning. "Symptomatic response to therapy with lansoprazole does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy." The label warns that "high-dose, long-term PPI therapy may be associated with an increased risk for osteoporosis-related fractures of the hip, wrist or spine," and of hypomagnesemia, where "serious adverse events include tetany, arrhythmias, and seizures" with prolonged use. Contraindicated only in patients with known severe hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation.
Indicated for short-term treatment of active duodenal ulcer, H. pylori eradication (in combination with amoxicillin, with or without clarithromycin), maintenance of healed duodenal ulcers, treatment of active benign gastric ulcer, healing and risk reduction of NSAID-associated gastric ulcer, treatment of symptomatic GERD and erosive esophagitis, maintenance of healed erosive esophagitis, and treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
