Antiulcer. Specific proton pump inhibitor (H + / K + -ATPase); is metabolized in parietal cells of the stomach to active sulfonamide derivatives that inactivate H + / K + -ATPase. It blocks the final stage of hydrochloric acid secretion, reducing basal and stimulated secretion, regardless of the nature of the stimulus. Possessing high lipophilicity, it easily penetrates into the parietal cells of the stomach, concentrates in them and has a cytoprotective effect, increasing oxygenation of the gastric mucosa and increasing the secretion of bicarbonate.
The rate and degree of inhibition of basal and stimulated secretion of hydrochloric acid are dose-dependent. After taking 30 mg of lansoprazole, the pH begins to rise after 2-3 hours. The inhibition of production of hydrochloric acid at a dose of 30 mg is 80-97%. Inhibitory effect increases in the first 4 days of admission. After stopping the intake, the acidity for 39 hours remains below 50% basal level, the "ricochet" increase in secretion is not noted.Secretory activity is normalized 3-4 days after the end of the drug intake.
In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome lansoprazole lasts longer. Increases the concentration of pepsinogen in the blood serum and inhibits the production of pepsin.
It promotes the formation in the gastric mucosa of specific IgA to Helicobacter pylori, suppressing their growth, increases the anti-Helicobacter pylori activity of other drugs.
Reduces blood flow in the antrum of the stomach, pylorus and bulb of the duodenum, on average, by 17%, inhibits the motor-evacuation function of the stomach.
Increases the concentration of gastrin in serum by 50-100% (the level of gastrin reaches the plateau after 2 months of treatment and returns to the initial values after the end of the course of treatment).
Effective in the treatment of peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenal, resistant to blockers H2-gistaminovyh receptors. Provides faster healing of ulcerative defects in the duodenum (85% of duodenal ulcers heal after 4 weeks of treatment at a dose of 30 mg / day). With reflux esophagitis, complete cure of patients is noted at the end of 8 weeks of admission (30 mg / day) in 88.7%.
