It is generally best to avoid using these medications together when possible. However, if you have no other alternatives for treatment, it is recommended that you take gefitinib 12 hours before or 12 hours after lansoprazole to help minimize the impact of the interaction. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs.
