Does lansoprazole influence postprandial digestive function?

Abstract

The effects of a potent proton pump inhibitor on postprandial digestive functions were compared with those of a placebo in a double-blind randomized crossover study. Six healthy male volunteers received 30 mg/day of lansoprazole or placebo for 7 days, with a wash-out period of 14 days. As compared to placebo, lansoprazole induced a marked decrease of mean +/- S.E.M. 3-h gastric acid secretion from 46.8 +/- 10.8 mmol to 10.9 +/- 2.5 mmol (P < 0.05), and a decrease of the volume of gastric contents emptying into the duodenum from 1043 +/- 139 ml to 660 +/- 87 ml (P < 0.05). However, gastric emptying remained unchanged with meal gastric emptying half times of 66 +/- 5 min and 67 +/- 13 min, respectively. During the 3-h postprandial period, duodenal lipase and chymotrypsin outputs were 366 +/- 123 KIU and 56 +/- 11 KIU with lansoprazole and 436 +/- 119 KIU and 49 +/- 8 KIU with placebo (N.S.). Bile acid outputs were 5.3 +/- 0.7 mmol and 6.0 +/- 1.0 mmol, respectively (N.S.) There was no change in kinetic profiles of biliary-pancreatic secretion. We conclude that potent inhibition of gastric secretion by chronic administration of a proton pump inhibitor at usual therapeutic dose alters neither meal gastric emptying nor postprandial biliary-pancreatic secretion.

Clinical and humanistic outcomes in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease converted from omeprazole to lansoprazole.

BACKGROUND: Omeprazole and lansoprazole are 2 proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) currently available in the United States. Both PPIs are approved for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and are commonly converted in therapeutic interchange programs. OBJECTIVE: To measure clinical and humanistic outcomes in patients with GERD converted from treatment with omeprazole to treatment with lansoprazole through a managed care plan policy. METHODS: Patients with heartburn or GERD receiving omeprazole covered by a local health plan were surveyed by telephone. Data collected included symptom frequency, severity, over-the-counter heartburn preparation use, diet, lifestyle, and overall satisfaction. Patients were then converted to therapy with lansoprazole and again interviewed after at least 30-day use of the new PPI. Demographic data were obtained from the health plan database for analysis. RESULTS: A total of 105 patients completed both telephone surveys. After the conversion, 37% of the patients experienced more frequent symptoms while awake. Symptom severity score was significantly higher (more severe) after conversion (mean score of 1.34 vs 2.26). Thirty-three percent of study patients consumed more over-the-counter heartburn preparations, and 13% changed their diet more frequently due to heartburn symptoms after conversion. Overall patient satisfaction score decreased significantly (less satisfied) after conversion (mean score of 9.0 vs 7.2). There were no significant differences in alcohol and tobacco consumption before and after conversion, while patients consumed significantly less caffeine after conversion. CONCLUSIONS: After the PPI therapeutic interchange from omeprazole to lansoprazole, patients with GERD or heartburn previously stabilized while receiving omeprazole experienced more severe symptoms and expressed decreased patient satisfaction. These results suggest a need to monitor symptoms after similar interchange programs.

[Lansoprazole versus ranitidine bismuth citrate containing triple regimens for Helicobacter pylori eradication in patients with duodenal ulcer].

The aim of this study was to compare in an open, controlled and prospective trial the efficacy of one-week regimen using either lansoprazole (2 x 30 mg) + 2 x 500 mg metronidazole + 2 x 250 mg clarithromycin (group I, 60 cases) or ranitidine bismuth citrate (2 x 400 mg) + 2 x 500 mg metronidazole + 2 x 250 mg clarithromycin (group II, 61 cases) on the eradication of Hp infection in duodenal ulcer patients. The diagnosis was stated endoscopically. Hp infection was confirmed from 2 antral + 2 corporeal biopsies by the modified Giemsa stain and rapid urease test. After eradication the patients were given on-demand treatment with 30 mg lansoprazole (group I) or 2 x 150 mg ranitidine (group II). Control 13C-urea breath test was performed 4-6 weeks after eradication. On intention to treat basis, Hp was eradicated in 78.3% (confidence interval, CI: 67.6-89.1%) in group I and 78.7% (CI: 68.1-89.2%) in group II (p > 0.05). Per protocol eradication rates were 92.1% (CI: 84.5-99.7%) in group I and 90.5 (CI: 82.4-98.6%) in group II (p > 0.05). Side effects were recorded in 13.5% in group I and 18.3% of cases in group II. Short term triple therapies using either lansoprazole or ranitidine bismuth citrate + 2 antimicrobials were effective and safe in the eradication of Hp in duodenal ulcer patients.
