A member asked:
My doctor wants me to take dexilant (dexlansoprazole) at night for 4 weeks. is this good or not. or better in the am?

Either is OK: Dexilant (dexlansoprazole) is a proton pump inhibitor. It is best taken on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before eating a meal, but day or night is not so important. Hope this helps!
