Medicine Description doxirazol 30mg
doxirazol 30mg Capsule is a medication that contains dexlansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). This drug acts on the gastric parietal cells to inhibit the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system, effectively reducing the secretion of gastric acid. By blocking this enzyme, dexlansoprazole decreases the amount of acid produced in the stomach, leading to increased pH levels in the gastric environment. This action alleviates the symptoms associated with excessive gastric acidity, such as heartburn and discomfort, and promotes healing of the esophageal lining affected by acid reflux.
