Junior Lanzol 15 MG Description
Junior Lanzol 15 tablet is used to relieve acidity and heartburn in conditions such as stomach and intestinal ulcers, acid reflux disease, and erosive esophagitis in children. It contains lansoprazole, which belongs to a class of medicine called “Proton pump inhibitors,” medications used to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach. Self-medication with the Junior Lanzol 15 tablet is not advised. Before beginning this medication's use, the child's doctor should be consulted.
Junior Lanzol works by blocking the micropumps in stomach cells, which are responsible for acid production. Junior Lanzol 15 tablets should be given to a child under adult supervision only. The dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by the child's doctor based on the child's age, weight, and the severity of the condition being treated.
Lan 15 capsule, Lanzoprax Kid 15 tablet and Lanstez 15 tablet are some other medicines with lansoprazole. Headache, nausea, diarrhoea, and other side effects are possible with Junior Lanzol 15 tablet use. The child's doctor should be notified right away if any of these side effects linger or get worse. Before beginning treatment with Junior Lanzol 15 tablet, it's important to let the child's doctor know about any other medications the child is taking because the two medications may interact.

Mode of Action of Junior Lanzol 15 MG

- Junior Lanzol 15 tablet blocks the activity of these micropumps in the stomach walls, known as Proton pumps. Thus, acid release in the stomach decreases, which helps heal ulcers and improves symptoms such as acidity and heartburn....
