Product Details

Wilsop 60mg Capsules contain Dexlansoprazole, an advanced proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used for the treatment of conditions like Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). By specifically inhibiting the gastric proton pump, these capsules reduce stomach acid production, providing relief from heartburn and healing erosive esophagitis.

Purposes

Wilsop 60mg is primarily prescribed for healing all grades of erosive esophagitis in patients aged 12 and older. It also helps maintain the healing of erosive esophagitis and provides relief from heartburn associated with non-erosive GERD.

Warnings

Patients using Wilsop 60mg should be aware of the potential for increased risk of osteoporosis-related fractures, particularly in the hip, spine, or wrist. Prolonged use may also lead to vitamin B12 deficiency due to malabsorption. It is recommended to use the lowest effective dose and for the shortest duration necessary.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Wilsop 60mg Capsules may include diarrhea, abdominal pain, and nausea. Less common effects can range from anemia and angina to gastrointestinal disorders such as colitis and gastritis. Patients should monitor for these symptoms and consult their healthcare provider if they occur.

Cautions

Before starting treatment with Wilsop 60mg, consider obtaining serum magnesium levels, especially if taking medications that could cause hypomagnesemia. This medication is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Dexlansoprazole or those using rilpivirine-containing products. Always consult your physician before using Wilsop 60mg, especially if you have severe hepatic impairment.
