Time for lansaprozole to take effect

Hi there
Could you please let me know how long it will take for the lansaprozole to work.  I have been taking it for 2 days and hasn't made very much difference yet unfortunately.  Am I being impatient?
Thank you

Hi,
If you are taking Lansoprazole for GERD, you can see the effect in  1-2 hours. But you have to take the medication for 4-8 weeks for better relief.In addition certain lifestyle changes are needed for complete relief.
These include -
1.Weight loss if obese
2. avoid coffee, tomato based products, citrus, chocolate, alcohol, smoking, fatty food and spicy food
3.Avoiding bedtime snacks
4. Eating frequent, smaller meals
5. Going to bed 2-3 hours after food
