Lansoprazole (Template:Pron-en lan-SOH-prə-zohl, INN) is a proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) which prevents the stomach from producing gastric acid. It is manufactured by a number of companies worldwide under several brand names (some brand names include: Prevacid, Helicid, Zoton, Inhibitol, Monolitum). It was first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1995.[2]

Prevacid patent protection expired on November 10, 2009.[3][4] As a result, prescription Lansoprazole is now available in the form of a generic drug. As of November 12, 2009, Lansoprazole is available over-the-counter (OTC) in the U.S. in a 15 mg dose marketed by Novartis as Prevacid 24HR.[5][6][7]

Currently (November 25, 2009) in the U.S, prescription Lansoprazole and OTC Prevacid sell for about 50% and 25% respectively of the cost of prescription Prevacid.

Pharmacology

Lansoprazole is a proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) in the same pharmacologic class as omeprazole. Lansoprazole has been marketed for many years and is one of several PPIs available.[8] Lansoprazole is a racemate [1:1-mixture of the enantiomers dexlansoprazole (Kapidex) and levolansoprazole].[9] Dexlanprantazole is an enantiomerically pure active ingredient of a commercial drug as a result of the 'enantiomeric shift'.

Lansoprazole's plasma elimination half-life is not proportional to the duration of the drug's effects (i.e. gastric acid suppression). The mean plasma elimination half-life is 1.5 hours,[10] and the effects of the drug last for over 24 hours after it has been used for 1 day or more.[11] Lansoprazole, 30 mg administered nasogastrically, effectively controls intragastric pH and is an alternative to i.v. pantoprazole in patients who are unable to swallow solid dosage formulations.[12]

Indications

Lansoprazole is indicated for:

Drug interactions

Side effects

Proton-pump inhibitors may be associated with a greater risk of hip fractures,[16] clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea.[17] Patients are frequently administered the drugs in intensive care as a protective measure against ulcers, but this use is also associated with a 30% increase in occurrence of pneumonia.[18]
