Abstract

Proton pump inhibitors are the strongest medications used in the treatment of acid-dependent gastroenterology diseases that inhibit the secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. The strength of the proton pump inhibitors is different in each patient and is caused by genetic conditions, metabolic differences dependent of cytochrome P450 (CYP) and also dependent of the type of acid inhibitor substance. Esomeprazole is a S-isomer of the omeprazole and it is metabolized in the liver more slowly than omeprazole, the consequence of this process is longer-lasting and higher blood concentration of the medication.
