General information about dexlansoprazole

Dexlansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid production. It is used for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and for healing or maintaining healing of erosive oesophagitis. Your clinician should confirm whether this medicine is appropriate and explain the treatment plan for your circumstances.

Dexylan-30: important precautions

Follow the prescription and the leaflet for your exact formulation. Do not chew or crush modified-release capsule contents. Ask a pharmacist for advice if swallowing capsules is difficult. Tell your clinician about other medicines, liver disease, low mineral levels, osteoporosis, pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Possible effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and gas. Seek prompt medical advice for severe persistent watery diarrhoea or symptoms of kidney problems. Get urgent help for swelling of the face or throat, breathing difficulty, or a severe blistering skin reaction. Long-term treatment should be reviewed by your clinician.
