What does it do?

Lansoprazole granules belong to the proton pump inhibitor class of drugs and are used to reduce excessive gastric acid secretion. They are mainly utilized in the treatment of peptic ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Lansoprazole blocks the proton pumps in the gastric wall cells, thereby decreasing the secretion of gastric acid. This helps to reduce mucosal damage caused by gastric acid and aids in the healing of ulcers.
