Pharmacology

Esomeprazole prevents the last step of gastric acid production by covalently binding
with the cysteine ​​sulfhydryl group in ATPase H + / K + on the secretory surface of gastric parietal cells, thus exerting its inhibitory effect on gastric acid. Regardless of the stimulus, this
effect will inhibit basic gastric acid secretion and stimulate gastric acid secretion. Since the combination of esomeprazole and the enzyme H + / K + ATPase is irreversible, it is necessary to express new enzymes to restore the acid secretion of,thus the antisecretory effect of esomeprazole lasts more than 24 hours.

 

Dosage & Administration

Interaction of Opton 20

Esomeprazole seems to be a selective inhibitor of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system and may have an effect on liver clearance rate of , but there are no reports of clinically relevant interactions so far. There are some uncertainties about the role of esomeprazole
in compound oral contraceptives. Since decreased gastric acid may affect the bacterial colonization in the stomach and duodenum and the absorption of vitamin B12, physiological changes similar to omeprazole may occur.
