Esomeprazole

Uses

Esomeprazole is used in the treatment of acidity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux), and peptic ulcer disease.

How it Works

Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the amount of acid in the stomach, providing relief from acid-related indigestion and heartburn.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Esomeprazole include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, flatulence, diarrhea, and vomiting.

Expert Advice

  • Esomeprazole is a well-tolerated medication that provides long-lasting relief.
  • Healthy tips to prevent acidity include:
    • Avoid excessive intake of carbonated beverages, soft drinks, citrus juices, fried foods, and caffeinated beverages such as tea and coffee.
    • Avoid alcohol and smoking.
    • Avoid eating late at night or before bedtime.
  • Inform your doctor if you experience:
    • Watery diarrhea
    • Fever
    • Stomach pain that does not resolve
  • If you do not feel better after taking Esomeprazole for 14 days, consult your doctor, as you may have another underlying issue that requires attention.
  • Long-term use of Esomeprazole can lead to:
    • Weak bones
    • Deficiency of minerals such as magnesium
  • Ensure adequate dietary intake of calcium and magnesium or take supplements as prescribed by your doctor.
  • Consult your doctor immediately if you develop:
    • Decreased urination
    • Edema (swelling due to fluid retention)
    • Lower back pain
    • Nausea
    • Fatigue
