Brand Voquezna is currently unavailable (at this pharmacy).

Generic vonoprazan is available in many countries worldwide, including India.

It is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards. The specific manufacturer of your dispensed medication may vary.

Important Information about Generic Vonoprazan:

Generic vonoprazan contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name Voquezna and is required to meet the same safety, effectiveness, and quality standards. This means it is designed to work in the same way as Voquezna. Studies have demonstrated bioequivalence between generic and brand-name vonoprazan, meaning they have comparable absorption rates and overall effects. However, individual responses to any medication can vary. If you have any questions about using generic vonoprazan, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

For more information about generic drug approval and bioequivalence, you can visit the FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/buying-using-medicine-safely/generic-drugs

Dosage:

The generic vonoprazan is available as 10 mg and 20 mg oral tablets.

Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage based on the individual needs and medical conditions.

Usage:

Voquezna (vonoprazan) is a prescription medication used to treat heartburn and other symptoms of acid reflux (gastroesophageal reflux disease - GERD), as well as erosive esophagitis (damage to the esophagus caused by stomach acid). It's also used with certain antibiotics to treat Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in the stomach.

Mechanism of Action:
Voquezna (vonoprazan) is a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB). It strongly reduces stomach acid by blocking the proton pump in stomach lining cells. This pump produces stomach acid, so blocking it significantly lowers acid levels. Reduced acid helps heal esophageal damage, relieves acid reflux, and improves the effectiveness of antibiotics against H. pylori infections.

Take Voquezna exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the highlights of prescribing information. Consult your doctor for personalized guidance and safe use.
