Lanzoprax Kid 15mg Tablet

Prescription Required

Product introduction

Lanzoprax Kid 15mg Tablet is a medicine that reduces the amount of acid produced in your stomach. It is used for treating acid-related diseases of the stomach and intestine, such as acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, and some other stomach conditions associated with excessive acid production.

Lanzoprax Kid 15mg Tablet is also used to prevent stomach ulcers and acidity. This medicine should be taken one hour before a meal. The dose and duration of the treatment will depend on your underlying condition and how you respond to the medicine. You should keep on taking it as prescribed, even if your symptoms disappear quickly. You can increase the efficiency of the treatment by eating smaller meals more often and avoiding caffeinated drinks (like tea and coffee) and spicy or fatty foods.


The most common side effects of this medicine include nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhea. These symptoms are generally mild, but if they bother you or do not go away, consult your doctor. Long-term use of this medicine may increase the risk of side effects. For instance, using this medicine for more than one year may increase your risk of bone fractures, especially with higher doses. Talk to your doctor about ways to prevent bone loss (osteoporosis), such as taking calcium and vitamin D supplements.


Before taking Lanzoprax Kid 15mg Tablet, you need to tell your doctor if you have severe liver problems or are taking medicines for HIV. Also, if you have ever had an allergic reaction to similar medicines in the past or suffer from bone loss (osteoporosis). Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. Prolonged use of painkillers increases the risk of peptic ulcers.
