You may have seen both omeprazole (Prilosec) and esomeprazole (Nexium) in the heartburn relief aisle of your local pharmacy. Have you ever debated which one to purchase? Have you ever wondered what the differences are between the two?
Omeprazole and Esomeprazole are both proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs). This class of over-the-counter medications is used to treat frequent heartburn that occurs 2 or more days per week. They work by decreasing the amount of acid that the stomach produces and are more effective in providing long-lasting heartburn relief than H2 blockers or antacids.
Omeprazole and esomeprazole are both proton-pump inhibitors, and share several similar characteristics:
Scientifically, omeprazole is a mixture of two stereo-isomers: R-omeprazole and S-omeprazole, while esomeprazole contains only one isomer, S-omeprazole. Stereo-isomers are compounds that have the same chemical formula but differ only in their arrangement of atoms, hence the similarity in their names.
There is somethat esomeprazole provides more effective acid control, lasts longer and works faster than omeprazole however, several studies have failed to find a difference between the two medications. The American College of Gastroenterologythat there are no major differences between the two when it comes to treatment of heartburn.
While both esomeprazole and omeprazole generally offer the same level of benefits, it may just come down to personal preference and cost. If you take other medications or have any medical conditions, it is a good idea to talk to your doctor or pharmacist for advice on the best and safest choice for you.
