- mild: the recommended dose is 1 Nolpaza tablet (20 mg) per day.
- moderate and severe: recommended dose - 1-2 tablets of 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 prevention, as well as as long-term maintenance therapy, take 20 mg/day (1 tablet of Nolpaza 20 mg), if necessary, increase the dose to 40-80 mg/day. The drug can be taken “on demand” if symptoms occur.

- 20 mg each.
Peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, treatment and prevention:
Prescribed 40-80 mg/day. The course of treatment for exacerbation of duodenal ulcer is usually 2 weeks, for gastric ulcer - 4-8 weeks. If necessary, the duration of therapy is increased.
Eradication of Helicobacter pylori (in combination with antibiotics):
Recommended dose: 1 Nolpaza tablet (40 mg) 2 times a day in combination with two antibiotics, usually the course of anti-Helicobacter therapy is 7-14 days.
Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and other pathological conditions associated with increased gastric secretion:
The recommended starting dose of long-term therapy with pantoprazole: 80 mg (2 Nolpaza 40 mg tablets) per day, divided into 2 doses. In the future, the daily dose can be titrated depending on the initial level of gastric secretion. It is possible to temporarily increase the daily dose of pantoprazole to 160 mg in order to adequately control gastric secretion. The duration of therapy is selected individually.
In patients with severely impaired liver function, the dose of pantoprazole should not exceed 40 mg per day and it is recommended to regularly monitor the activity of liver enzymes, especially with long-term treatment with pantoprazole. If the activity of liver enzymes increases, it is recommended to discontinue the drug.
In elderly people and patients with kidney disease, the maximum daily dose of pantoprazole is 40 mg. In elderly people receiving Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy, the duration of therapy usually does not exceed 7 days.
Instructions for use NOLPAZA®
It is necessary to regularly monitor the activity of liver enzymes throughout the entire period of use of pantoprazole (especially during long-term therapy). If the activity of liver enzymes increases, treatment with pantoprazole should be discontinued.
The use of Nolpaza® in a dose of 20 mg as a prophylactic agent for the treatment of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the stomach and duodenum caused by NSAID therapy should be limited only to the group of patients continuing NSAID therapy and at risk of developing gastrointestinal complications. This risk is assessed by the presence of individual risk factors, for example, advanced age (over 65 years), gastric or duodenal ulcers and a history of gastrointestinal bleeding.
When conducting combination therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication, it is necessary to observe and take into account the characteristics of the relevant drugs. In the presence of alarming symptoms (eg, significant unintentional weight loss, recurrent vomiting, dysphagia, hematemesis, anemia or melena) or in the presence or suspicion of a gastric ulcer, it is necessary to exclude the presence of a malignant neoplasm, because The therapy carried out, masking the symptoms, can delay the correct diagnosis. Re-evaluation should be carried out if symptoms persist despite adequate therapy with pantoprazole.
In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and other pathological conditions associated with increased gastric secretion that require long-term treatment, pantoprazole may reduce the absorption of vitamin B12 cyanocobalamin against the background of suppressed hydrochloric acid secretion. This should be taken into account in patients with reduced body weight or the presence of risk factors for reduced absorption of vitamin B12 during long-term therapy or in the presence of clinical symptoms.
Long-term therapy, especially lasting more than 1 year, requires regular monitoring of the patient.
When using pantoprazole, like other proton pump inhibitors, it is possible to increase the number of bacteria normally present in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Treatment with Nolpaza® may lead to a slight increase in the risk of developing bacterial gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria such as Salmonella spp. and Campylobacter spp.
Severe hypomagnesemia has been observed in patients taking proton pump inhibitors, incl. pantoprazole, more than 3 months, and in most cases - within a year. Severe manifestations of hypomagnesemia may include fatigue, tetany, delirium, seizures, dizziness, and ventricular arrhythmia. In most patients, their condition improved after magnesium replacement therapy or cessation of treatment with proton pump inhibitors. If long-term therapy with proton pump inhibitors is planned, as well as during the simultaneous use of digoxin or drugs that cause hypomagnesemia (for example, diuretics), magnesium levels should be monitored before starting therapy and periodically during treatment.
Proton pump inhibitors, when used long-term (more than 1 year) and when used in high doses, may slightly increase the risk of fractures of the femur, wrist and spine, especially in elderly patients or patients with established risk factors. Research suggests that proton pump inhibitors may increase the overall risk of fractures by 10-40%. However, this increase may be due to other risk factors. Patients at risk of developing osteoporosis need to get adequate amounts of vitamin D and calcium; Such patients should be treated in accordance with current clinical guidelines.
Nolpaza® contains sorbitol, so the drug is not recommended for use in patients with rare hereditary conditions associated with fructose intolerance.
