Vonoprazan Tablet 10 mg is a potassium-competitive acid blocker (PCAB) used to treat acid-related gastrointestinal disorders.  It works by reversibly inhibiting the H+, K+-ATPase enzyme (proton pump) in gastric parietal cells, leading to potent and sustained suppression of gastric acid production.  This mechanism differs from traditional proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) by being potassium-competitive and not requiring acid activation, resulting in faster onset and longer-lasting acid control. 

Key Uses

• Treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): Provides relief from heartburn and acid regurgitation. 

• Healing of erosive esophagitis: Promotes healing of esophageal lining damage caused by acid reflux. 

• Maintenance therapy: Prevents recurrence of healed erosive esophagitis. 

• Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication: Used in combination with antibiotics (amoxicillin and clarithromycin, or amoxicillin alone) to treat H. pylori infection. 

Dosage and Administration

• Standard dose: 10 mg once daily, typically taken in the morning, on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before a meal.
