Gastroesophageal reflux disease

Treatment of erosive reflux esophagitis: 40 mg once a day for 4 weeks. An additional 4 weeks is recommended for patients in whom esophagitis has not healed or whose symptoms persist.

Long-term treatment of relapses in patients with healed esophagitis: 20 mg once a day.

Symptomatic treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease: 20 mg once a day in patients without esophagitis. If symptom control is not achieved within 4 weeks of treatment, the patient should be evaluated. When symptoms are eliminated, 20 mg once a day may be sufficient for further control. For adults, you can use the “if necessary” regimen, taking 20 mg once a day. Patients who have used NSAIDs and in whom there is a risk of developing gastric or duodenal ulcers, further control of symptoms using the “if necessary” regimen is not recommended.
