Dexlansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other gastrointestinal disorders. It is a prescription medication that works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is available in both immediate-release and delayed-release formulations. Dexlansoprazole is also used to treat erosive esophagitis, a condition in which the lining of the esophagus is damaged by stomach acid. It is also used to treat ulcers, and to prevent ulcers from forming in patients taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Dexlansoprazole is a popular choice for treating GERD and other gastrointestinal disorders due to its effectiveness and relatively low side effects.
