Question: what is the difference between esomeprazole and esomeprazole magnesium?
Answer: For example, the isomer that's in Nexium is processed more slowly than Prilosec in your body. This means that levels of the drug are higher in your bloodstream, and that esomeprazole may decrease acid production for a longer period of time. It may also work slightly faster to treat your symptoms compared to omeprazole.
