    Lansoprazole, sold under the brand name Prevacid among others, is a medication which reduces stomach acid.[2] It is used to treat peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and Zollinger–Ellison syndrome.[1] Effectiveness is similar to other proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).[5] It is taken by mouth.[2] Onset is over a few hours and effects last up to a couple of days.[2]

    Common side effects include constipation, abdominal pain, and nausea.[2][3] Serious side effects may include osteoporosis, low blood magnesium, Clostridium difficile infection, and pneumonia.[2][3] Use in pregnancy and breastfeeding is of unclear safety.[6] It works by blocking H+/K+-ATPase in the parietal cells of the stomach.[2]

    Lansoprazole was patented in 1984 and came into medical use in 1992.[7] It is available as a generic medication.[1] A one-month supply, in the United Kingdom, costs the NHS less than £5, as of 2019.[1] In the United States, the wholesale cost of this amount is about $5.40, as of 2019.[8] In 2017, it was the 188th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than three million prescriptions.[9][10]

    Medical uses

    Healing of an ulcer with lansoprazole, with the second image on day 8 and the third on day 28

    Lansoprazole is used for treatment of:[3]

    There is no evidence that it works better than other PPIs.[5]

    Dosage

    The defined daily dose is 30 mg by mouth.[4]

    Side effects

    Side effects of PPIs in general[12] and lansoprazole in particular[13] may include:[3]

    PPIs may be associated with a greater risk of hip fractures and Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea.[3]:22

    Interactions

    Lansoprazole interacts with several other drugs, either due to its own nature or as a PPI.[17]

    Lansoprazole possibly interacts with, among other drugs:

    Chemistry

    It is a racemic 1:1 mixture of the enantiomers dexlansoprazole and levolansoprazole.[19] Dexlansoprazole is an enantiomerically pure active ingredient of a commercial drug as a result of the enantiomeric shift. Lansoprazole's plasma elimination half-life (1.5 h) is not proportional to the duration of the drug's effects to the person (i.e. gastric acid suppression).[20]

    History

    Lansoprazole was originally synthesized at Takeda and was given the development name AG 1749.[21] Takeda patented it in 1984 and the drug launched in 1991.[22] In the United States, it was approved for medical use in 1995.[23]

    Society and culture

    Prevacid 30 mg

    Patents

    The lansoprazole molecule is off-patent and so generic drugs are available under many brand names in many countries;[24] there are patents covering some formulations in effect as of 2015.[25] Patent protection expired on 10 November 2009.[26][27]

    Availability

    Since 2009, lansoprazole has been available over the counter (OTC) in the U.S. as Prevacid 24HR[28][29] and as Lansoprazole 24HR.[30] In Australia, it is marketed by Pfizer as Zoton.

    Cost

    A one-month supply, in the United Kingdom, costs the NHS less than £5, as of 2019.[1] In the United States, the wholesale cost of this amount is about $5.40, as of 2019.[8] In 2017, it was the 188th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than three million prescriptions.[9][10]

    Research

    In vitro experiments have shown that lansoprazole binds to the pathogenic form of tau protein.[31] As of 2015 laboratory studies were underway on analogs of lansoprazole to explore their use as potential PET imaging agents for diagnosing tauopathies including Alzheimer's disease.[31]
