What is
Lansoprazole
?

Lansoprazole medications belong to the family of drugs known as Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).

For those wondering, “what Lansoprazole is used for?”, they’re indicated for use in treating conditions where it’s required to lower the production of gastric acid secretion in your body.

If you’re curious about what other names Lansoprazole is sold under, NTP-Lansoprazole and Prevacid are the brand names of this medication, but its generic name is simply Lansoprazole. There are no other names Lansoprazole is sold under.

Do you want to learn more about prescription Lansoprazole uses, or how this medication functions? Click here to explore more information.

How does
Lansoprazole
work?

Lansoprazole medications work by affecting the lining of your stomach, causing it to produce less gastric acid during the digestion process.

It also assists with excess stomach acid building up, so that stomach acid doesn’t collect enough between/after meals to make its way back up into your esophagus, where it could cause damage.

‍

What is
Lansoprazole
used to treat?

There are a few different uses for Lansoprazole prescriptions, depending on what your practitioner believes could be your underlying condition. Lansoprazole uses include:

  • Treatment of reflux esophagitis, which is the inflammation of your throat caused by regurgitation of food/stomach acid
  • Treatment of symptomatic Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), a disease brought on by chronic acid reflux problems
  • Treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, in which your body naturally produces too much stomach acid and leads to symptoms like acid reflux and heartburn

‍

How do you take
Lansoprazole
?

Lansoprazole dosages (15 or 30mg) are to be taken once daily, before breakfast. 

In some cases, your practitioner may prescribe Lansoprazole doses for twice day use. In this case, you should take your Lansoprazole before breakfast, as well as another meal later in the day.

Always follow your clinician’s dosing schedule as accurately as possible, in order to achieve the best possible results from your Lansoprazole treatments.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next pill. In that case, skip the missed pill. NEVER double-up or take extra Lansoprazole medications without consulting your practitioner to ensure it’s safe.

‍

How long does
Lansoprazole
last after you take it?

The plasma-elimination halflife for Lansoprazole medications is only 2 hours, so if you’re curious about, “how long does Lansoprazole take to work?”, it provides some relief typically 1-2 hours after ingestion.

There is some significant improvement usually shown in 2-4 days of consistent use, and it becomes fully effective after 1-2 weeks, as your acid production is gradually reduced.

This is why for many patients, Lansoprazole is recommended for once-a-day treatments, in order to provide your body with a consistent, stable acid inhibitory effect.

For those with severe excess acid or symptom issues, practitioners may suggest twice-per-day dosing, in order to increase the acid inhibitory effects and help reduce symptom intensity.

‍SIDE NOTE: For clarification, the acid inhibitory effect that Lansoprazole dosages elicit from your body lasts 24 hours individually, but its effects compound over time with consistent use.

What are the common side effects of
Lansoprazole
?

Most people that use Lansoprazole (15 or 30mg dosages) won’t experience any kind of side effects, or the side effects of their Lansoprazole prescription will be mild and may disappear or lessen over time.

With that in mind, the most common side effects of Lansoprazole include:

  • Muscle pain
  • Belching
  • Constipation
  • Diarrhea
  • Dizziness
  • Dry mouth
  • Bloating or gas
  • Headaches
  • Indigestion
  • Insomnia
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Rashes
  • Weakness

If any of these side effects of Lansoprazole become severe, be sure to let your practitioner know. They may be able to suggest alternative medications to Lansoprazole without interactions that cause negative side effects.

There are no commonly occurring serious side effects of Lansoprazole known at this time, but if you do start to experience any severe side effects with Lansoprazole, be sure to contact your practitioner right away.

They may want to adjust your dosage of Lansoprazole from 30mg to 15mg, or suggest a different treatment option that may work better for you.

Who shouldn't take
Lansoprazole
?

Some people shouldn’t use Lansoprazole for GERD or acid reflux, as negative side effects or interactions could occur. These people include:

  • Patients who have an allergy to Lansoprazole or any of the other active ingredients in Lansoprazole prescriptions
  • Patients who are breastfeeding (unless its use is considered essential)

In addition, there are some people who should be extra cautious about using Lansoprazole prescriptions, including those who:

  • Have severe or chronic diarrhea
  • Have a malignant gastric ulcer
  • Have kidney problems
  • Have liver problems
  • Are taking astemizole, terfenadine, or pimozide
  • Have unusual or allergic reaction-type responses to taking Lansoprazole
  • If you’re pregnant, planning to become pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to breastfeed

Your practitioner may want to suggest alternatives to Lansoprazole without interactions that could cause negative side effects.

What Not to Take with Lansoprazole

There are certain medications that you shouldn’t take while using an online prescription for Lansoprazole in Canada. These medications may cause negative interactions with Lansoprazole.

To be safe, you should always let your practitioner know about any/all medications you’re taking, prior to requesting a new treatment. However, be extra sure to let your practitioner know before requesting Lansoprazole for GERD or acid reflux symptoms if you’re already taking:

  • Ampicillin esters
  • Atazanavir
  • Digoxin
  • Iron salts
  • Ketoconazole
  • Sucralfate
  • Theophylline
  • Warfarin

Your practitioner may want to assign an alternative treatment option than Lansoprazole if you’re already taking one of these medications.

‍

Can I Take Lansoprazole While Pregnant?

It has been shown that Lansoprazole medications do pass through to unborn children, as well as through breast milk during the breastfeeding process.

Because of this, it’s not recommended to use Lansoprazole in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, unless your practitioner deems the benefits to outweigh the risks that it could pose against an unborn or nursing child.

If you’re pregnant, planning to become pregnant, breastfeed, or planning to breastfeed, be sure to let your practitioner know, before requesting an online Lansoprazole prescription in Canada from Felix.

Felix 101

What is Felix?

Felix is Canada’s first truly integrated healthcare platform. We provide on-demand treatment for everyday health needs like weight loss, mental health, sexual health, and more. Founded in 2019, our digital-first approach to healthcare includes everything from diagnosis to prescription — all accessible from the comfort of home.

Does Felix replace my doctor?

No. Felix provides a faster, hassle-free way for you to get a treatment plan for certain conditions, but our service does not replace your primary care provider. For matters that extend beyond obtaining a lifestyle treatment safely and easily, we encourage you to consult your primary health practitioner in person — whether for checkups, personal health concerns, or to inform them about your current treatments or treatment plans.

Can I be accurately assessed remotely?

Absolutely. Our online assessments have been designed to ask all the necessary questions required for diagnosis. We've worked with specialists to create an assessment process that can provide sufficient information for the healthcare practitioner to determine whether or not you are eligible for a prescription and craft an appropriate treatment plan.

It's an emergency. What do I do?

Call 911 or proceed to your nearest emergency room immediately. Felix is not intended for medical emergencies. Once the emergency has been addressed or resolved, contact your prescribing practitioner to inform them of your experience as this may impact your current treatment plan.

Who can use Felix?

Anyone who is 18 years or older older (16 or older for acne and birth control prescriptions), and is located in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan or Ontario. We cannot ship treatments outside of these provinces at this time.

Online Visits

How does the visit work?

After creating an account, you will complete a medical assessment for evaluation by one of the Felix healthcare practitioners. 

During your assessment, you will have the opportunity to send your practitioner questions via secure messaging.  

In most cases, practitioners will complete your assessment with secure messaging alone but sometimes they may determine you require an audio or video visit and/or further diagnostic testing to help determine the best treatment plan for you. 

If your practitioner has determined a prescription treatment is appropriate, they will approve your visit and write you a prescription. Our pharmacy will then ship your prescription to your home.

You’ll be able to message your healthcare practitioner if you have questions or want to make changes to your treatment at any time.

Do I need to complete my online visit at a scheduled time?

No. We use an asynchronous telemedicine model so you can complete your online visit in your own time and we save your progress so you can come back later to finish it.

If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare practitioner may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.

Does the online visit require a phone or video appointment?

Most assessments do not require a phone or video conversation. Once a prescriber has reviewed the info in your assessment they will respond to you via secure instant messages that you can access within your Felix account.  

If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare practitioner may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.

How quickly will a healthcare practitioner review my online visit?

You can expect to receive a response from a healthcare practitioner within 24 hours of submission. If you’ve been waiting longer than this, please email hello@felixforyou.ca and we’ll look into it.

Can I just get the treatment and skip the online visit?

No. A visit with a licensed healthcare practitioner is required for all treatments currently provided through Felix’s service.

Shipping

How long will it take to get my treatment?

Not long. After completing your assessment, a practitioner will generally respond within 24 hours, and often much sooner.

Treatment plans will be processed within 2-3 business days of your approval date if there is nothing blocking fulfillment.

All packages are shipped via Express Post, which usually takes 2-3 business days. You will receive an email with your tracking number once your treatment has been shipped.

Will my shipment be affected by the Canada Post strike?

Because we work with multiple delivery partners, your shipments won’t be affected by the Canada Post Strike. We are working to ensure that your medication will be processed and shipped according to schedule. Learn more about how to navigate the service disruption here.

Is your packaging discreet?

Absolutely. All Felix shipments arrive in a nondescript blister package so you can have your treatment shipped wherever makes sense for you as long as there is someone there to sign for it.

Do I have to be home to receive my package?

A signature upon delivery may be required.

How much does it cost to ship my treatment?

There is currently no cost to have your treatment shipped to you from our Felix Pharmacy network.

Privacy and Security

Is my information private and secure?

Is this safe?

Absolutely. All prescriptions obtained via Felix are provided by licensed Canadian healthcare practitioners—the same as you would get at a hospital, doctor’s office, or clinic. These practitioners do not provide prescriptions unless they deem it medically safe and appropriate to write them based on your medical profile and assessment answers. Our assessments have been crafted by the practitioners on our medical team. Finally, all Felix Pharmacies are provincially accredited just like any retail pharmacy.

How is my privacy protected?

Pricing and Payment

It depends. Treatment costs vary but will be in line with what you would pay at a pharmacy in person. You will see the estimated cost of your treatment before insurance, during the online visit but will only be charged once approved. Once approved, your treatment and payment will be processed within one to two days.

Keep in mind that you won’t necessarily need to pay the full price yourself. If you have insurance, Felix’s partner pharmacies will bill your insurer directly. You may also be eligible for financial support in your province.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards for any aspect of your treatment not covered by insurance or other financial support

Am I covered by my insurance?
