What is Dexilant?

Dexilant (dexlansoprazole) is a proton pump inhibitor used to treat stomach and esophagus problems such as erosive esophagitis and heartburn caused by gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Dexilant decreases the amount of acid produced in the stomach which relieves symptoms such as heartburn, persistent cough or difficulty swallowing.

Always read the patient information and instructions carefully before using this medication. Follow your doctor’s directions.

• Dexilant should be taken orally with or without food and is typically taken once a day. If your symptoms usually occur after a meal, then for best results, your doctor may direct you to take your dose before the same meal each day.
• Swallow Dexilant capsules whole without chewing or crushing the capsules. If you struggle to swallow this medication whole, open the capsule and sprinkle the contents onto a tablespoon of applesauce and then swallow the mixture immediately without swallowing.
• Your Dexilant dosage is based on your medical condition and your response to treatment. Do not change your dosage or the frequency you take this medication unless advised by a doctor.
• Dexilant is most effective when it is taken regularly. Try to take this medication at the same time each day. Tell your doctor if your condition does not improve or worsens.

Make sure to tell your doctor and pharmacist:

• If you have any drug or other allergies.
• Which other prescription and non-prescription medications you currently take.
• Your medical history especially of lupus or liver disease.
• If you are breast feeding. It is unknown if this medication passes into breast milk.

Also be aware that:

• The risk of side effects increases over time. Ask your doctor how long you should take this medication.
