Dexilant
Dexilant (dexlansoprazole) is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. This medication helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, helps prevent ulcers, and may help prevent cancer of the esophagus.
How is this medication used?
Take Dexilant exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually taken once daily, with or without food. Swallow the capsules whole; do not crush or chew them. If you have difficulty swallowing capsules, Dexilant may be opened and the contents sprinkled on a tablespoon of applesauce; swallow immediately without chewing.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of Dexilant include diarrhea, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and gas. Serious side effects may include low magnesium levels, lupus, and vitamin B12 deficiency. Contact your doctor if you experience significant side effects or symptoms that don't go away.
What are the potential interactions?
Dexilant may interact with other medications such as warfarin, methotrexate, digoxin, and specific antifungal or antibiotic medications. Always inform your healthcare provider of all the drugs you take, including over-the-counter drugs, prescription medications, and herbal supplements, to avoid potential interactions.
