Benefits of Prevacid

Prevacid helps relieve the burn and lets the healing begin.

One Prevacid, once a day helps prevent the acid, stops the heartburn pain, and allows your body to heal.

Find relief. If you suffer from acid reflux disease, you may need more than just diet changes and antacids to stop the burn of heartburn pain. That's why your doctor may prescribe Prevacid. With just one Prevacid, complete 24-hour heartburn relief is possible. Your results may vary.

Let the healing begin. Acid reflux disease can lead to serious damage to your esophagus over time, a condition known as erosive esophagitis. Prevacid can actually heal the damage to your esophagus that can be caused by acid reflux disease and stop it from coming back, if prescribed. Your results may vary.

In fact, Prevacid has healed damage even in many difficult-to-treat patients for whom some other acid-reducing treatments have failed. Though individual results may vary, up to 95% of patients with erosive esophagitis who were taking Prevacid had healed by their 8th week.

If your doctor finds that your esophagus has suffered damage from acid reflux disease, it's important to allow time for it to heal. Prevacid gives your esophagus that chance to heal. Most erosions heal in 4–8 weeks.

Prevacid is approved for more acid-related conditions than any other medicine in its class. Prevacid is prescribed for: relief of heartburn associated with acid reflux disease; the healing of erosive esophagitis; and the treatment of certain types of ulcers.

Important Safety Information for Prevacid

If you suffer from persistent heartburn two or more days a week, despite treatment and diet changes, it could be acid reflux disease. Prescription Prevacid Capsules and Prevacid SoluTabTM (lansoprazole) Orally Disintegrating Tablets are used for the treatment of acid reflux disease including erosive esophagitis and for maintenance of healed erosive esophagitis. Your results may vary. Most erosions heal in 4–8 weeks. Prevacid may not be right for everyone and has a low occurrence of side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain and nausea. Symptom relief does not rule out other serious stomach conditions. Talk to your doctor or healthcare professional to see if Prevacid is right for you. Prevacid products should not be crushed or chewed.
