About this product
Overview
Wilsop 60mg Capsule contains the active ingredient Dexlansoprazole and belongs to a class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Dexlansoprazole is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems such as acid reflux, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and erosive esophagitis. It works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach, thereby relieving symptoms and promoting healing of the esophagus.
Uses
- Wilsop 60mg Capsule is primarily prescribed for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition characterized by the backward flow of stomach acid into the esophagus, causing symptoms such as heartburn, regurgitation, and chest pain.
- It is also indicated for the management of erosive esophagitis, a condition characterized by inflammation and damage to the lining of the esophagus due to prolonged exposure to stomach acid.
How to Use
- Wilsop 60mg Capsule is usually taken orally once daily, preferably in the morning before a meal.
- The capsule should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and should not be crushed, chewed, or opened.
- It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider and not exceed the prescribed dose.
Precautions
- Before using Wilsop 60mg Capsule, inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have, especially liver disease or osteoporosis, as PPIs may increase the risk of bone fractures.
- Inform your doctor about all the medications you are taking, including prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal supplements, as Dexlansoprazole may interact with certain drugs.
- Long-term use of PPIs like Dexlansoprazole may increase the risk of certain side effects, including vitamin B12 deficiency, magnesium deficiency, and Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea.
Side Effects
- Common side effects of Wilsop 60mg Capsule may include headache, diarrhea, stomach pain, nausea, and gas.
- Less common but more severe side effects may include allergic reactions, severe diarrhea, bone fractures, and low magnesium levels.
When Not to Use
- Wilsop 60mg Capsule should not be used in patients who are allergic to Dexlansoprazole or any other ingredients in the medication.
- It is not recommended for use in individuals with liver disease or osteoporosis without consulting a healthcare professional.
