The active ingredient in lansoprazole delayed-release orally disintegrating tablet is lansoprazole USP, a substituted benzimidazole, 2-[[[3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridyl] methyl] sulfinyl] benzimidazole, a compound that inhibits gastric acid secretion. Its empirical formula is C 16 H 14 F 3 N 3 O 2 S with a molecular weight of 369.37. Lansoprazole USP has the following structure: Lansoprazole USP is a white to brownish-white powder which melts with decomposition at approximately 166°C. Lansoprazole USP is freely soluble in dimethylformamide and practically insoluble in water. Lansoprazole USP is stable when exposed to light for up to two months. The rate of degradation of the compound in aqueous solution increases with decreasing pH. The degradation half-life of the drug substance in aqueous solution at 25°C is approximately 0.5 hour at pH 5.0 and approximately 18 hours at pH 7.0. Lansoprazole USP is supplied as delayed-release orally disintegrating tablets for oral administration. Lansoprazole delayed-release orally disintegrating tablets are available in two dosage strengths: 15 and 30 mg of lansoprazole USP per tablet. Each delayed-release orally disintegrating tablet contains enteric-coated microgranules consisting of 15 or 30 mg of lansoprazole USP (active ingredient) and the following inactive ingredients: aspartame 1 , citric acid anhydrous powder, crospovidone, ethyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate copolymer dispersion, glyceryl monostearate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose 3cps, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose 15cps, hydroxypropyl cellulose, low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, iron oxide red, iron oxide yellow, magnesium carbonate, mannitol, magnesium stearate, methylacrylic acid ethyl acrylate copolymer dispersion, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, polysorbate 80, sodium hydroxide, strawberry guarana flavour, sugar spheres, talc, titanium dioxide, and triehtyl citrate. 1 Phenylketonurics: Lansoprazole Delayed-Release Orally Disintegrating Tablets Contain Phenylalanine 2.52 mg per 15 mg Tablet and 5.04 mg per 30 mg Tablet. structure
