The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the first generic version of Nexium®, a drug used to treat heartburn, but not acid reflux. The generic version of Nexium® is called Nexium 24HR, which is available by prescription only.

Nexium is the first of a three class of heartburn medications called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). PPIs are designed to help reduce acid reflux by reducing the amount of stomach acid released when acid is absorbed.

PPIs are known for their relatively short half-life (2-4 hours). However, they’re still designed to be taken exactly as prescribed and are often prescribed for longer periods of time. The generic version of Nexium is called Nexium 24HR. The generic name for Nexium is esomeprazole. The brand name for Nexium is omeprazole.

Nexium was first approved by the FDA in June 2012.

Nexium was developed by AstraZeneca, the British drug maker. AstraZeneca is an innovation-driven biopharmaceutical company with a focus on discovery and development of new drug candidates for treating diseases that have not been fully studied or approved.

Nexium is a popular choice for the treatment of heartburn and acid reflux because of its relatively short half-life, which means it can be taken exactly as prescribed.
