Vonoprazan, sold under the brand name Voquezna among others, is a first-in-class potassium-competitive acid blocker medication.[2][1] Vonoprazan is used in form of the fumarate for the treatment of gastroduodenal ulcer (including some drug-induced peptic ulcers) and reflux esophagitis, and can be combined with antibiotics for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori.[2]
It was approved in Japan in February 2015,[3][4] and in Russia in April 2021.[5] Vonoprazan was approved for medical use in the United States in November 2023.[1][6] Co-packaged combinations of vonoprazan with amoxicillin and vonoprazan with amoxicillin and clarithromycin are available.[7][8]
