Doxirazol 30 mg 14 capsules

Composition:

Each capsule contains: Dexlansoprazole 30 mg (as dexlansoprazole modified-release).

Product Description:

Doxirazol is a modified-release proton pump inhibitor (PPI) containing dexlansoprazole, the R-enantiomer of lansoprazole.
The product features a Dual Delayed Release technology that provides two consecutive releases of the active substance: the first shortly after administration, and the second a few hours later.
This dual-release profile provides prolonged acid suppression and consistent 24-hour symptom relief by inhibiting the final step of acid production in gastric parietal cells.

Indications for Use:

Doxirazol is indicated for use in adults and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older:
Treatment of Erosive Esophagitis (EE): For healing of all grades of erosive esophagitis (up to 8 weeks).
Maintenance Therapy of Healed EE and Relief of Heartburn: Up to 6 months in adults, and up to 16 weeks in adolescents 12–17 years of age.
Treatment of Symptomatic Non-Erosive Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): A 4-week course for the relief of heartburn and other reflux symptoms.

Contraindications:

Known hypersensitivity or allergy to dexlansoprazole, other substituted benzimidazoles, or any component of the formulation.
Co-administration with rilpivirine-containing products (due to the risk of loss of antiretroviral therapeutic efficacy).

Precautions:

  • Long-term PPI therapy may increase the risk of bone fractures (hip, wrist, spine) and hypomagnesemia (regular monitoring of serum magnesium levels is recommended).
  • Associated with an increased risk of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea and vitamin B12 deficiency during prolonged treatment.
  • Symptomatic response to PPI therapy does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy.
  • Exercise caution when co-administered with warfarin, digoxin, or methotrexate.
  • Potential for altered absorption of pH-dependent medications (e.g., atazanavir, erlotinib, ketoconazole).
