Our Family (Lansoprazole 15 mg Capsule 1)
Lansoprazole Delayed-Release Capsules help to treat frequent heartburn that occurs for two or more days a week, although it is not intended for immediate relief of heartburn since it may take 1 to 4 days for full effect. The active ingredient is Lansoprazole 15 mg, and other ingredients include sucrose, sugar spheres, talc, and titanium dioxide. The bottles that contain the capsules are tamper-evident, and patients are advised not to use the product if the inner foil seal is imprinted with "sealed for your protection" or if there is a dark blue to black gelatin band around the center of each capsule that is missing or broken. Patients who are allergic to lansoprazole should not use this product, and those who need to take this product for more than 14 days, take more than one course of treatment every 4 months, or get diarrhea should talk to a health professional before using the product. There are specific directions for use, such as taking one capsule with a glass of water before eating in the morning and making it a habit to take it once a day every day for 14 days. If heartburn continues or worsens, patients should stop using the product and seek medical attention.*
