Your doctor may prescribe you Monolitum Flas for the following indications:

  • Treatment of duodenal and gastric ulcers
  • Treatment of inflammation of the esophagus (reflux esophagitis)
  • Prevention of reflux esophagitis
  • Treatment of heartburn and acid regurgitation
  • Treatment of infections caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori, in combination with antibiotics
  • Treatment or prevention of duodenal or gastric ulcers in patients who require continuous treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (NSAID treatment is used for pain or inflammation)
  • Treatment of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

It is possible that your doctor has prescribed Monolitum Flas for another indication or at a different dose than indicated in this leaflet. Follow your doctor's instructions regarding the taking of the medicine.

2. What you need to know before you take Monolitum Flas

Do not takeMonolitum

  • If you are allergic to lansoprazole or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Monolitum:

  • If you have reduced body stores of vitamin B12 or risk factors for this and you receive long-term treatment with lansoprazole. Like all acid-reducing medicines, Monolitum may reduce the absorption of vitamin B12.
  • If you are scheduled to have a specific blood test (Chromogranin A).
  • If you have ever had a skin reaction after treatment with a medicine similar to Monolitum to reduce stomach acidity.
  • If you suffer from a skin rash, especially in areas of the skin exposed to the sun, consult your doctor as soon as possible, as it may be necessary to interrupt treatment with Monolitum. Remember to mention any other symptoms you may notice, such as joint pain.

When taking lansoprazole, kidney inflammation may occur. The signs and symptoms may include decreased urine volume or the presence of blood in the urine and/or hypersensitivity reactions such as fever, skin rash, and joint stiffness. You should report these signs to your doctor.

Tell your doctor if you have a severe liver disease. It is possible that the doctor may need to adjust the dose.

Your doctor may have performed or may perform a complementary test called endoscopy to diagnose your disease and/or rule out a malignant disease.

If you experience diarrhea during treatment with Monolitum, contact your doctor immediately, as Monolitum has been associated with a slight increase in infectious diarrhea.

If your doctor has prescribed Monolitum in addition to other medicines intended for the treatment of Helicobacter pyloriinfection (antibiotics) or together with anti-inflammatory drugs to treat pain or rheumatism, also read the package leaflets of these medicines carefully.

Taking a proton pump inhibitor like Monolitum, especially for a period longer than one year, may slightly increase the risk of hip, wrist, or vertebral fractures. Inform your doctor if you have osteoporosis or if you are taking corticosteroids (which may increase the risk of osteoporosis).

If you have been taking Monolitum for a long time (more than 1 year), your doctor will probably perform regular check-ups. During visits to your doctor, you should report any new or abnormal symptoms and circumstances.

Other medicines and Monolitum

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription.

In particular, tell your doctor if you are using medicines that contain any of the following active substances, as Monolitum may affect their mode of action:

  • HIV protease inhibitors such as atazanavir and nelfinavir (used in the treatment of HIV)
  • methotrexate (used to treat autoimmune diseases and cancer)
  • ketoconazole, itraconazole, rifampicin (used to treat infections)
  • digoxin (used to treat heart problems)
  • warfarin (used to treat blood clots)
  • theophylline (used to treat asthma)
  • tacrolimus (used to prevent transplant rejection)
  • fluvoxamine (used to treat depression and other psychiatric disorders)
  • antacids (used to treat heartburn or acid regurgitation)
  • sucralfate (used to heal ulcers)
  • St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) (used to treat mild depression)

Taking Monolitum with food and drinks

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant, or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

Driving and using machines

Patients taking Monolitum may occasionally experience side effects, such as dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, and visual disturbances. If you experience any of these side effects, you should act with caution as your reaction ability may be reduced.

You are the only person responsible for deciding whether you are fit to drive vehicles or perform activities that require a high level of concentration. Due to its effects or adverse reactions, one of the factors that can reduce your ability to perform these operations safely is the use of medicines.

In the following sections, you will find descriptions of these effects.

Read this leaflet carefully.

If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Monolitum contains sucrose and sodium

This medicine contains sucrose. If your doctor has told you that you have an intolerance to some sugars, consult with them before taking this medicine.

3. How to take Monolitum Flas

Follow the instructions for administration of this medicine exactly as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. In case of doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.

Place the tablet on the tongue and suck it slowly. The tablet dissolves quickly in the mouth, releasing microgranules that should be swallowed without chewing. You can also swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.

Your doctor may give you instructions to administer the tablet via a syringe, in case you have serious difficulties swallowing.

Follow the following instructions in case of administration via a syringe:

It is important that you check that the selected syringe is suitable.

  • Remove the plunger from the syringe (at least a 5 ml syringe for the 15 mg tablet and a 10 ml syringe for the 30 mg tablet).
  • Place the tablet in the reservoir.
  • Replace the plunger in the syringe.
  • For the 15 mg tablet: fill the syringe with 4 ml of water.
  • For the 30 mg tablet: fill the syringe with 10 ml of water.
  • Invert the syringe and pull the plunger to allow 1 ml of air to enter.
  • Gently shake the syringe for 10-20 seconds until the tablet is dispersed.
  • The contents can be emptied directly into the mouth.
  • Refill the syringe with 2-5 ml of water to remove any remaining residue from the syringe and empty it into the mouth.

If you take Monolitum Flas once a day, try to take it always at the same time. You may get better results if you take Monolitum Flas in the morning.

If you take Monolitum Flas twice a day, you should take the first dose in the morning and the second dose at night.

The dose of Monolitum Flas depends on your general condition. The usual doses of Monolitum Flas for adults are indicated below. Sometimes, your doctor may prescribe a different dose and indicate a different duration of treatment.

Treatment of heartburn and acid regurgitation:one 15 mg or 30 mg orally disintegrating tablet per day for 4 weeks. If symptoms persist, inform your doctor. If symptoms do not improve after 4 weeks, consult your doctor.

Treatment of Helicobacter pyloriinfection:The usual dose is one 30 mg orally disintegrating tablet together with two different antibiotics in the morning and one 30 mg orally disintegrating tablet together with two different antibiotics at night. The treatment is usually daily for 7 days.

The recommended combinations of antibiotics are as follows:

  • 30 mg of Monolitum Flas with 250 mg of clarithromycin and 400-500 mg of metronidazole

If you receive anti-infective treatment due to an ulcer, it is unlikely that the ulcer will recur if the infection is treated satisfactorily. To get the best results from your medicine, take it at the right time and do not forget to take any doses.
