Pharmacology

It consists of an immediate-release esomeprazole magnesium layer and an enteric-coated naproxen core. Therefore, esomeprazole is first released in the stomach, and then naproxen is dissolved in the small intestine. 

Naproxen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with analgesic and antipyretic properties. Naproxen's mechanism of action is to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins. Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that specifically acts on proton pumps and inhibits gastric acid secretion by specifically inhibiting ATPase H + / k + in parietal cells. Esomeprazole blocks acid production. The last passage, thereby reducing gastric acid.

Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration that meets each patient's treatment goals. If the esomeprazole dose is less than the total daily dose of 40 mg, a different treatment should be considered.

Esomeprazole inhibits gastric acid secretion and may interfere with the absorption of drugs, in which gastric acidity is an important determinant of bioavailability (such as ketoconazole, iron salts, and digoxin). 

and food and others: the intake of naproxen, esomeprazole, and high-fat foods in healthy volunteers will not affect the absorption of naproxen, but can significantly prolong the tmax by 10 hours and increase the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) reduced by approximately 12 %
