Lansoprazole works by blocking acid production in the stomach. This medication is known as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It is used to treat acid-related stomach and throat (esophagus) problems (e.g., acid reflux or GERD, ulcers, erosive esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome). Prevacid is also used to treat ulcers due to the long-term use of certain drugs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs) for pain or swelling. In addition, Lansoprazole may be used in combination with antibiotics to treat certain types of ulcers caused by bacterial infection. Due to the popularity of the drug, it is easily available world over. Generic versions have also been introduced and you can easily buy Prevacid online from our online pharmacy. Learn More
