Publisher's Synopsis
Drugs in Context is an independent, peer reviewed and practice orientated review of all the significant data on a specific drug, placed in the context of the disease and clinical practice setting. Lansoprazole Editorial: "While effective diagnosis of GORD is relatively straightforward, selecting an appropriate treatment strategy can be problematic." Disease Overview: "If GORD remains untreated or if treatment is inadequate, it can cause life-threatening complications." Drug Review: "Lansoprazole is effective in short-term and maintenance treatment of erosive and non-erosive GORD." Improving Practice: "GORD is a disease defined by its symptoms and thus good symptom control is the primary goal of management."
