What is Nexium
- Nexium (generic name esomeprazole) is a proton-pump inhibitor used to treat GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), duodenal ulcer disease, and erosive esophagitis.
- Proton-pump inhibitors are a group of drugs designed mainly to reduce stomach acid (gastric acid). Proton pump inhibitors are believed by some “experts” to be the most powerful and effective inhibitors of stomach acid secretions on the market today.
- Nexium is also used to prevent gastric ulcers in patients receiving long-term NSAID therapy, and to treat Crohn’s disease patients with gastrointestinal ulcers.
- Nexium may also be used to prevent gastric ulcer caused by infection with helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), or by the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
