LANSOSTRUM 15 JUNIOR 

Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat various gastrointestinal conditions, primarily those related to excessive stomach acid production. Here's some information about Lansoprazole:

1. Mechanism of Action: Lansoprazole works by irreversibly inhibiting the proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) in the gastric parietal cells. This action reduces the secretion of gastric acid into the stomach, thereby decreasing the acidity of gastric contents.

2. Indications: Lansoprazole is commonly prescribed for the treatment of conditions associated with excessive stomach acid, including:

   • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
   • Gastric ulcers
   • Duodenal ulcers
   • Erosive esophagitis
   • Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (a rare condition characterized by excessive stomach acid production)
