Introduction

Dexlansoprazole 60 mg is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat acid-related disorders such as GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), erosive esophagitis, and other conditions involving excessive stomach acid production. LANSOSTRUM 60 contains a modified-release (MR) formulation for dual delayed-release, providing longer-lasting relief compared to standard PPIs.

How Dexlansoprazole MR 60 mg Works

Dexlansoprazole belongs to the PPI class of drugs, which work by:

• Blocking the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system in the stomach lining (the "proton pump")

This unique modified-release mechanism ensures sustained symptom control for up to 24 hours, even with once-daily dosing.
