Moderate Established

Description

Lansoprazole, like omeprazole, inhibits CYP2C19 and reduces clopidogrel's antiplatelet efficacy, potentially increasing cardiovascular event risk.

Mécanisme

Lansoprazole inhibits CYP2C19, reducing the formation of clopidogrel's active thiol metabolite and impairing P2Y12 receptor blockade.

Signification clinique

FDA and EMA communications note reduced platelet inhibition; pantoprazole is preferred when gastroprotection is needed.

Prise en charge

Switch to pantoprazole if PPI is needed in clopidogrel-treated patients; if lansoprazole must be used, monitor for cardiovascular events.
