How to take, the dosage

The drug Nolpaza® is taken orally before meals, without chewing or crushing, with plenty of fluid.

GERD, including erosive ulcerative reflux esophagitis and GERD-associated symptoms: exgastric regurgitation, sour regurgitation, pain on swallowing:

mild degree:the recommended dose is 1 tablet of Nolpaza® (20 mg) per day;

medium to severe:the recommended dose is 1-2 tablets of the drug Nolpaza® 40 mg per day (40-80 mg/day). Relief of symptoms usually occurs within 2-4 weeks. The course of therapy is 4-8 weeks. For prophylaxis, as well as for long-term maintenance therapy, 20 mg daily (1 tablet of Nolpaz® 20 mg), if necessary, the dose is increased to 40-80 mg/day. It is possible to take the medicine “on demand” in case of symptoms.

Gastric and duodenal ulcer, erosive gastritis (including those associated with taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)

To 40-80 mg daily.

The course of treatment is 2 weeks at exacerbation of duodenal ulcer disease, if this time is not enough, healing can usually be achieved during the next 2 weeks of therapy. The course of treatment is 4-8 weeks at exacerbation of peptic ulcer disease and erosive gastritis.

Antiretroviral treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer – 20 mg/day.

Eradication Helicobacter pylori

The following combinations are recommended:

The drug Nolpaza® 40 mg 2 times a day + amoxicillin 1000 mg 2 times a day + clarithromycin 500 mg 2 times a day.

The drug Nolpaza® 40 mg 2 times a day + metronidazole 500 mg 2 times a day + clarithromycin 500 mg 2 times a day.

The drug Nolpaza® 40 mg 2 times a day + amoxicillin 1000 mg 2 times a day + metronidazole 500 mg 2 times a day.

Treatment course is 7-14 days.

Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

For long-term therapy of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and other pathological hypersecretory conditions, treatment should begin with a daily dose of 80 mg (2 tablets of Nolpaza® of 40 mg). Then, if necessary, the dose may be increased or decreased, depending on the acidity of gastric juices. Doses above 80 mg per day should be divided and used twice daily. A temporary increase in the dose of pantoprazole above 160 mg is possible, but should not be continued longer than necessary to achieve control of acidity. The duration of treatment in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and other pathological hypersecretory conditions is not limited, and the duration of therapy may be determined depending on clinical necessity.

In patients with significant liver dysfunction, the daily dose of pantoprazole should not exceed 20 mg per day (1 tablet of Nolpaza® 20 mg). In this regard, the use of pantoprazole in 40 mg dosage is not recommended in this group of patients. The activity of “liver” enzymes should be monitored regularly during treatment with pantoprazole, especially during long-term use. In case of increased liver enzyme activity the treatment should be discontinued.

No dose adjustment is required in elderly patients and patients with renal failure.

Due to the lack of data on the use of Nolpase® as part of combination antimicrobial therapy against Helicobacter pylori in patients with impaired renal function and in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment, the drug should not be used.

Interaction

The simultaneous use of other proton pump inhibitors or H2-histamine receptor blockers without medical advice is not recommended.

The simultaneous use of Nolpase® may decrease the absorption of drugs whose bioavailability is dependent on the pH of the stomach (e.g. ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole and other drugs such as erlotinib).

During drug interaction studies, no clinically significant interactions were identified when pantoprazole was used in the following cases:

It is also noted that there is no clinically significant drug interaction with caffeine, ethanol, theophylline.

There are reports of elevated blood levels of methotrexate in some patients when it is used together in high doses (e.g., 300 mg) with IPN. Therefore, when using high doses of methotrexate, such as in cancer or psoriasis, it may be necessary to consider temporarily withdrawing pantoprazole.

CYP2C19 isoenzyme activity inhibitors such as fluvoxamine may increase the systemic exposure of pantoprazole. Dose reduction may be necessary in patients receiving long-term treatment with high doses of pantoprazole or in patients with hepatic impairment.

Inducers of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 isoenzyme activity such as rifampicin and Hypericum (Hypericum. perforatum), can decrease the plasma concentration of IPNs metabolized by these enzyme systems.

HIV protease inhibitors

Pantoprazole is not recommended for use with HIV protease inhibitors whose absorption depends on the pH of the gastric environment (e.g., atazanavir) because of a significant decrease in their bioavailability.

If co-administration of HIV protease inhibitors and IPNs is still necessary, careful clinical monitoring (e.g., viral load determination) is recommended. The dose of pantoprazole should not exceed 20 mg daily. Adjustments in HIV protease inhibitor dosage may also be necessary.

Special Instructions

Hepatic failure, risk factors for cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12 deficiency (especially in the background of hypo- and achlorhydria).

It is contraindicated in persons under 18 years of age.

In patients with significant liver dysfunction the daily dose of pantoprazole should not exceed 20 mg per day (1 tablet of Nolpaza® 20 mg). In this regard, the use of pantoprazole in 40 mg dosage is not recommended in this group of patients. Hepatic enzyme activity should be monitored regularly during treatment with pantoprazole, especially during long-term use. In case of increased liver enzyme activity the treatment should be discontinued.

No dose adjustment is required in elderly patients and patients with renal failure.

Overdose

No cases of overdose were observed as a result of using Nolpaza®.

Doses of pantoprazole up to 240 mg were administered intravenously within 2 minutes and were well tolerated.

In case of overdose and only when clinical manifestations appear, symptomatic and supportive therapy is given. Pantoprazole is not excreted by hemodialysis.

Pregnancy use

Pregnancy

As a precaution, the use of Nolpaza® during pregnancy should be excluded.

Breastfeeding period

Due to insufficient information on the use of Nolpaza® in women during breastfeeding, the potential risk to newborns and breastfed infants cannot be excluded. In this regard, it is necessary to decide whether to stop breastfeeding or to cancel/suspend treatment with Nolpaz®.

Fertility

There are no data on the effects of Nolpase® on fertility in humans. Preclinical studies have shown no effect on male or female fertility.
