At the recent FASEA conference held in Orlando, Dr. Jane Smith, a board certified endocrinologist and the chairman of the FASEA Board of Directors, discussed the efficacy of Nexium (esomeprazole magnesium) in treating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its implications on patient safety.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic condition that affects the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and esophageal sphincter (ES). It occurs when a person has difficulty swallowing food, causing acid to form in the esophagus and causing irritation. GERD is characterized by persistent food reflux and irritation at the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). GERD can be categorized into three types: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary GERD is characterized by a persistent food/liquid intake and frequent irritation at theLES.
Secondary GERD is characterized by a persistent food/liquid intake but frequent irritation at theLES, and the symptoms can be similar to those of primary GERD. Secondary GERD is characterized by a persistent food/liquid intake but frequent irritation at theLES, and the symptoms can be similar to those of secondary GERD.
Tertiary GERD is characterized by a persistent food/liquid intake but frequent irritation at theLES, and the symptoms can be similar to those of primary GERD.
According to the American Gastroenterological Association, more than 20 million Americans suffer from GERD each year. In 2016, the percentage of Americans with GERD was approximately 40%. The National Institutes of Health estimates that approximately 20 million Americans have GERD.
It is important for patients to work with their healthcare providers to determine whether treatment is appropriate for their individual needs and preferences. They should also consider lifestyle changes, such as dietary changes, exercise, and medications, to help them manage their symptoms effectively.
In this blog post, Dr. Smith discusses the role of Nexium (esomeprazole magnesium) in the management of GERD and its implications on patient safety.
Related Key Points
When it comes to managing GERD and its symptoms, Nexium (esomeprazole) is the first choice. It is a member of the class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It works by blocking an enzyme responsible for producing stomach acid, thereby reducing symptoms and improving the quality of life for patients.
Nexium (esomeprazole) is a prescription drug, meaning it is available only with a doctor's prescription. It is important for patients to discuss their expectations with their healthcare provider about which treatment option is right for them and what they need to do.
Nexium is typically prescribed to patients who have tried other PPI medications, but have not achieved their goals with Nexium. This is because Nexium may not be as effective in treating reflux symptoms like acid reflux or GERD. Patients should discuss the benefits and potential side effects of this medication with their healthcare provider.
Patients taking Nexium may experience side effects, including gastrointestinal problems like nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting, as well as the risk of developing a heart attack or stroke. Patients should also discuss any interactions with other medications they may be taking, as they may be taking different drugs for different conditions.
In addition to side effects, patients should be aware of potential interactions with other medications they may be taking. These may include birth control while taking Nexium, as well as other medications that can affect how Nexium works.
Patients should be cautious when taking Nexium, as it may interact with other medications they are taking, as well as other drugs they may be taking.
Nexium (esomeprazole) is an over-the-counter (OTC) prescription medication, meaning it is available only with a doctor's prescription. It is used to treat conditions such as GERD, and is also used to manage symptoms of GERD in adults. In addition to its primary use in treating reflux disease, Nexium may also be used to treat other conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
For those who are on Nexium, a patient may take a low dose of Nexium (1-3 mg daily), or increase the dose in a range of 2-4 mg to 5 mg once daily.

Nexium 24HR tablets, also known as Nexium 24Hec, are a type of drug known as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). They work by reducing the amount of stomach acid produced by the stomach. However, they can take many forms, and in some cases, may be taken with or without food. Just one proton pump enzyme can change the amount of stomach acid that is produced by the stomach. Just one of these enzymes is the proton pump and may not be taken with food.
