NEXIUM 40MG IV INFUSION – 10 VIALS

Nexium (esomeprazole) 40 mg IV infusion is a medication primarily used to treat conditions related to excessive stomach acid production. It belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The main uses of Nexium include the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where it helps alleviate symptoms such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. It is also used in the management of peptic ulcers, both gastric and duodenal, and for the prevention of ulcers in patients taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Additionally, Nexium is effective in treating Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a condition characterized by excessive gastric acid secretion. The IV formulation is particularly useful for patients who cannot take oral medications due to various reasons, such as surgery or severe nausea. Overall, Nexium helps promote healing of the esophagus and stomach lining by reducing acid production.
