Hi, I have been on lansoparozole for about 4 years now. Apart from an ulcer, when I had to double the lanosporazole, things have been ok.0

yup,been on them for years.
their main purpose is to protect the stomach from drugs that can cause ulcers.0 -
I take its sister med, omeprazole, to protect my tummy against the other pills and potions and so far, so good. Lansap and omep are important if you are taking anti-inflammatories as they can really irritate the gut. I wish you well. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Hi
I've been on lansoprozol for quite a while and previous to that it was omneprozol {same type of thing}
I take a large dose of Naproxen {anti inflamm} and its to protect my stomach from ulcers etc from those tablets.
Up to now its been fine......working as a protective......I havent had any stomach problems and hopefully it will stay like that

I've been taking lansoprazole for a couple of years together with the anti inflammatories, firstly Ibuprofen and now Naproxen and I have never had a problem with them. Glad they are working for you too!0

Hi
I have been on this since I started taking NSAIDs 9 years ago
Gps should always prescribe this or omeprazole when starting patients on NSAIDs to protect the stomach from getting ulcers
Ive never had any problems with them
Glad you are taking them
