PREVACID at a dose of 30 mg was significantly more effective than ranitidine 150 mg twice daily as shown below (In addition, patients treated with PREVACID reported less day and nighttime heartburn and took less antacid tablets for fewer days than patients taking ranitidine 150 mg twice daily.Although this study demonstrates effectiveness of PREVACID in healing erosive esophagitis, it does not represent an adequate comparison with ranitidine because the recommended ranitidine dose for esophagitis is 150 mg four times daily, twice the dose used in this study.In the two trials described and in several smaller studies involving patients with moderate to severe erosive esophagitis, PREVACID produced healing rates similar to those shown above.In a U.S. multi-center, double-blind, active-controlled study, 30 mg of PREVACID was compared with ranitidine 150 mg twice daily in 151 patients with erosive reflux esophagitis that was poorly responsive to a minimum of 12 weeks of treatment with at least one HTwo independent, double-blind, multi-center, controlled trials were conducted in patients with endoscopically confirmed healed esophagitis. days and one to 11 months. The size of the individual dog is also an important factor in terms of omeprazole dosage. Due to the normal In over 2100 patients, median fasting serum gastrin levels increased 50 to 100% from baseline but remained within normal range after treatment with 15 to 60 mg of oral lansoprazole. percentage of responders between the lansoprazole pediatric suspension group had higher exposure (mean weight-based normalized AUC values 2.04 and 1.88 fold had non-erosive GERD and 42% had erosive esophagitis (assessed by endoscopy).After eight to 12 weeks of PREVACID treatment, the The 30 mg dose of PREVACID demonstrated no additional benefit in risk reduction of the NSAID-associated gastric ulcer than the 15 mg dose (In a U.S. multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 214 patients with frequent GERD symptoms, but no esophageal erosions by endoscopy, significantly greater relief of heartburn associated with GERD was observed with the administration of lansoprazole 15 mg once daily up to eight weeks than with placebo. visit. Patients remained in remission significantly longer and the number of recurrences of erosive esophagitis was significantly less in patients treated with PREVACID than in patients treated with placebo over a 12 month period (Regardless of initial grade of erosive esophagitis, PREVACID 15 and 30 mg were similar in maintaining remission.In a U.S., randomized, double-blind study, PREVACID 15 mg daily (n=100) was compared with ranitidine 150 mg twice daily (n=106), at the recommended dosage, in patients with endoscopically-proven healed erosive esophagitis over a 12 month period. moderate overall GERD symptoms (assessed by investigator interview), 58% Compared to healthy adults receiving 30 mg, neonates Infants In most patients, treatment of hypomagnesemia required magnesium replacement and discontinuation of the PPI.For patients expected to be on prolonged treatment or who take PPIs with medications such as digoxin or drugs that may cause hypomagnesemia (e.g., diuretics), healthcare professionals may consider monitoring magnesium levels prior to initiation of PPI treatment and periodically [see Serum chromogranin A (CgA) levels increase secondary to drug-induced decreases in gastric acidity.
