Esomeprazole (chemical name)
Nexium (brand name)
Also known as "The Purple Pill"
Nexium (Esomeprazole) belongs to a group of drugs called
proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). They are:
- Nexium (Esomeprazole)
- Prilosec (Omeprazole)
- Prevacid (Lansoprazole)
- Protonix (Pantoprazole)
- Aciphex (Rabeprazole)
Chemically, Nexium (Esomeprazole) is very similar to Prilosec
(Omeprazole).
Proton pump inhibitors reduce the production of acid in
the stomach and intestines by blocking the enzyme in the
wall of the stomach that produces acid. Decreasing stomach
acid can help ulcers to heal and reflux, or heartburn symptoms
to subside.
Nexium is used to treat gastroesophageal
reflux disease (GERD), and erosive esophagitis,
and other conditions involving excessive stomach acid production.
The FDA also approved Nexium, in combination with two antibiotics,
amoxicillin and clarithromycin, to treat helicobacter
pylori (H. pylori) infection, which is responsible
for the majority of gastric
ulcers and duodenal
ulcers. Nexium may also be used to treat other conditions
as determined by your doctor.
