ESMOSTRUM FAST (Esomeprazole 40mg): Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Price, and More information...

ESMOSTRUM FAST 

Esomeprazole (40mg)

Esomeprazole (40 mg), marketed under the brand name ESMOSTRUM FAST, is a medication primarily used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems, such as acid reflux and ulcers. It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes, providing relief from symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. 

What is ESMOSTRUM FAST?

ESMOSTRUM FAST contains Esomeprazole (40mg) as its active ingredient. This medication is designed to offer rapid relief from the discomfort and complications associated with excess stomach acid. By inhibiting the proton pumps in the stomach lining, Esomeprazole effectively reduces acid production, promoting healing and preventing further damage.

Uses of ESMOSTRUM FAST

Treating Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

ESMOSTRUM FAST helps to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach, thereby alleviating symptoms like heartburn, regurgitation, and discomfort.

Healing Erosive Esophagitis

Erosive esophagitis is inflammation and damage to the esophagus due to stomach acid. Esomeprazole aids in healing the esophagus and preventing further injury by significantly reducing acid production.

Managing Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome

Zollinger-Ellison syndrome is a condition characterized by tumors in the pancreas or duodenum that cause excessive stomach acid production. ESMOSTRUM FAST helps manage this condition by controlling acid secretion.

Preventing Stomach Ulcers

For patients who take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that can cause stomach ulcers, ESMOSTRUM FAST can be prescribed to prevent ulcer formation by reducing stomach acid.

How Does ESMOSTRUM FAST Work?

Esomeprazole, the active ingredient in ESMOSTRUM FAST, functions by blocking the enzyme in the stomach wall that produces acid. This enzyme, known as the H+/K+ ATPase or the proton pump, is responsible for secreting hydrochloric acid into the stomach. By inhibiting this enzyme, Esomeprazole effectively decreases gastric acid production, providing symptomatic relief and promoting healing of the gastrointestinal lining.
