Visit our Acid Reflux page for more information.

How Does Lansoprazole 30mg Work?

Lansoprazole 30mg is a type of Proton Pump Inhibitor. A Proton Pump Inhibitor (or PPI) reduces the amount of acid that your stomach produces. When taken correctly, they are effective at reducing the symptoms of acid reflux and heartburn.

Is Lansoprazole 30mg Safe to Use?

Yes, when taken correctly. Dosage can vary so it is important to talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Lansoprazole.

You shouldn’t take Lansoprazole 30mg if you are taking any of the following medication:

Adderall (Amphetamine / Dextroamphetamine)
Aspirin
Aspirin Low Strength (Aspirin)
Citalopram
Clopidogrel
Cymbalta (Duloxetine)
Lipitor (Atorvastatin)
Plavix (Clopidogrel)
Reyataz (Atazanavir)
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin)

When taking Lansoprazole, avoid alcohol. Alcohol can be irritable to the stomach lining and therefore increase the amount of acid produced. Alcohol won’t make Lansoprazole ineffective, but it can exacerbate certain medical conditions.
