Overview
Esomeprazole (injection) is a proton pump inhibitor that is FDA approved for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), NSAID-associated gastric ulcer, H. pylori eradication, pathological hypersecretory conditions including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Common adverse reactions include abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, xerostomia, headache, somnolence.

Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity reactions, e.g., angioedema and anaphylactic shock, have been reported with esomeprazole use.
Warnings
Concurrent Gastric Malignancy
- Symptomatic response to therapy with esomeprazole does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy.
Atrophic Gastritis
- Atrophic gastritis has been noted occasionally in gastric corpus biopsies from patients treated long-term with omeprazole, of which esomeprazole is an enantiomer.
Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea
- Published observational studies suggest that PPI therapy like esomeprazole may be associated with an increased risk of Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea, especially in hospitalized patients. This diagnosis should be considered for diarrhea that does not improve.
- Patients should use the lowest dose and shortest duration of PPI therapy appropriate to the condition being treated.
- Clostridium diffficile associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents.
Interaction with Clopidogrel
- Avoid concomitant use of esomeprazole with clopidogrel. Clopidogrel is a prodrug. Inhibition of platelet aggregation by clopidogrel is entirely due to an active metabolite. The metabolism of clopidogrel to its active metabolite can be impaired by use with concomitant medications, such as esomeprazole, that inhibit CYP2C19 activity. Concomitant use of clopidogrel with 40 mg esomeprazole reduces the pharmacological activity of clopidogrel. When using esomeprazole consider alternative anti-platelet therapy.

The increased CgA level may cause false positive results in diagnostic investigations for neuroendocrine tumors. Healthcare providers should temporarily stop esomeprazole treatment at least 14 days before assessing CgA levels and consider repeating the test if initial CgA levels are high.
