Inhidex 30mg Capsule containing 30mg of dexlansoprazole. It belongs to the class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and is used to treat various conditions related to excessive stomach acid production.
Description:
Inhidex capsules are designed to release dexlansoprazole, the active ingredient, slowly over time to provide long-lasting relief from symptoms associated with conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive esophagitis, and other disorders characterized by excessive stomach acid production.
Uses:
Inhidex capsules are primarily used to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach, thereby alleviating symptoms such as heartburn, acid reflux, and irritation of the esophagus caused by stomach acid.
Side Effects:
Common side effects of Inhidex may include headache, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and flatulence. In rare cases, it may cause more severe side effects such as liver problems or allergic reactions.
Precautions:
It is important to take Inhidex capsules exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider to ensure their effectiveness and minimize the risk of side effects. Do not crush or chew the capsules; swallow them whole with a glass of water. Inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking, as certain drugs may interact with dexlansoprazole. Long-term use of PPIs like Inhidex may be associated with an increased risk of certain side effects, so it is important to use them only as directed by your healthcare provider.
When Not to Use:
Inhidex capsules should not be used in individuals with a known hypersensitivity or allergy to dexlansoprazole or any other ingredients in the capsules. They are also contraindicated in individuals taking medications that are metabolized by the CYP2C19 enzyme, as dexlansoprazole may affect the metabolism of these drugs.
