Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, offering improved pharmacokinetic properties and efficacy compared to its racemic predecessor. Directly inhibiting the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system (the “proton pump”) in the stomach’s acid-secreting parietal cells significantly diminishes basal and stimulates gastric acid production. This makes it effective for treating acid-related disorders and preventing potential complications associated with excessive stomach acid.

Description

Esomeprazole, marketed under the brand Nexium, among others, is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce stomach acid. It is highly effective in treating conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Esomeprazole blocks the stomach wall’s proton pump, which is responsible for acid production. This action relieves symptoms and allows the digestive system’s lining to heal. It comes in various forms, including capsules, tablets, and injectable solutions.
