Summary

Sparsentan solubility is pH dependent, and acid suppression may reduce its exposure. This could weaken its proteinuria-lowering effect in IgA nephropathy.

What this interaction means in plain words

Lansoprazole and Sparsentan can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Lansoprazole belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Sparsentan belongs to Genitourinary.

Evidence level: Low

Why it happens

Raised gastric pH reduces sparsentan solubility and absorption.
