Active ingredients

The drug VOCINTI contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Vonoprazan
UNII 4QW3X4AMLB - VONOPRAZAN FUMARATE

Vonoprazan suppresses basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell through inhibition of the H+, K+-ATPase enzyme system in a potassium competitive manner. Because this enzyme is regarded as the acid (proton) pump within the parietal cell, vonoprazan has been characterized as a type of gastric proton-pump inhibitor, in that it blocks the final step of acid production. Vonoprazan does not require activation by acid. Vonoprazan may selectively concentrate in the parietal cells in both the resting and stimulated states. Vonoprazan binds to the active pumps in a noncovalent and reversible manner.
