How does Zoton FasTab work?

Zoton FasTab belongs to a group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). This class of medication stop cells in the stomach from producing excessive amounts of acid.

Cells found on the stomach lining have proton pumps that produce gastric (stomach) acid. Zoton FasTab's active ingredient, lansoprazole, stops the proton pumps from working, consequently reducing the production of gastric acid.

It is through stomach acid reduction that Zoton FasTab helps in relieving painful heartburn symptoms by decreasing the risk of acid escaping via the lower oesophageal sphincter and causing GORD.
