Esomeprazole: Works by inhibiting the proton pump in the stomach lining, which reduces the production of stomach acid. This helps in healing acid-related damage to the stomach and esophagus, prevents ulcers, and relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough.
GERD is a chronic condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and symptoms like heartburn, regurgitation, and discomfort. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the lining of the stomach, small intestine, or esophagus. They are often caused by infection with Helicobacter pylori bacteria or long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
