NEXIUM ACTION MECHANISM Nexium is a proton pump inhibitor that suppresses gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of H+/K+-ATPase enzyme system in gastric parietal cell. By acting specifically on proton pump, Nexium blocks final step in acid production, thus reducing gastric acidity. NEXIUM DOSAGE Take Nexium exactly as prescribed by your med..

PROTONIX ACTION MECHANISM Protonix covalently binds to (H+, K+)-ATPase enzyme system present on surface of gastric parietal cell thereby suppressing final step in gastric acid production, resulting in inhibition of both basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion irrespective of stimulus. PROTONIX DOSAGE Protonix dosage depends on type ..

ACIPHEX ACTION MECHANISM Aciphex belongs to antisecretory class of compounds (substituted benzimidazole proton-pump inhibitors).Aciphex suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting gastric H+, K+ ATPase present at secretary surface of gastric parietal cell. Acipex thus blocks final step of gastric acid secretion. ACIPHEX DOSAGE Take Aciphex dosa..

PREVACID ACTION MECHANISM Prevacid belongs to class of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) drug. Prevacid acts by blocking enzyme that produces acid (hydrochloric acid) in stomach, thereby decreasing acid concentration in stomach. As a result, decrease in acid production helps in healing of stomach and esophagus. PREVACID DOSAGE Dosage depends on clinical ..

PRILOSEC ACTION MECHANISM Prilosec belongs to class of antisecretory compounds that act as selective and irreversible proton pump inhibitor. Prilosec works by suppressing gastric acid secretion by inhibition of hydrogen–potassium adenosinetriphosphatase enzyme system, found at secretary surface of parietal cells. It inhibits final transport of hydr..

ZANTAC ACTION MECHANISM Zantac is competitive and reversible, histamine type-2 receptor antagonists (also called as H2 blockers). It acts by preventing the activation of acid production thereby indirectly reducing stomach acidity. Zantac also relieves heartburn associated with acid indigestion and sour stomach. ZANTAC DOSAGE Zantac can ..
