How ILAPRAZONE 10 Works

Ilaprazole works by selectively and irreversibly inhibiting the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme in the gastric parietal cells. This enzyme is the final step in the acid secretion process, and its inhibition leads to a marked reduction in gastric acid production. As a result, ILAPRAZONE 10 helps promote the healing of ulcers and prevents damage caused by acid reflux.
