Amazon Basic Care Esomeprazole Magnesium Delayed Release Capsules, 20 mg, Acid Reducer, 42 Count

Amazon Basic Care Esomeprazole Magnesium Delayed Release Capsules have been a reliable and effective solution for managing frequent heartburn and acid reflux. The 20 mg dosage works well for daily use, and I’ve noticed a significant reduction in discomfort within a few days of starting it. The capsules are easy to take and the delayed-release formula seems to provide long-lasting relief throughout the day. It has helped me avoid the usual burning sensation after meals and improved my overall digestive comfort. I also appreciate that this option offers the same active ingredient as other well-known brands but at a more affordable price. It’s a simple, no-frills product that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Overall, this is a dependable acid reducer that delivers consistent results and good value. I would definitely recommend it to anyone dealing with occasional or frequent heartburn.

These generic capsules work as well as the Nexium brand name. Esomeprazole magnesium is the only such medication that works for my GERD. Similar name brand products simply do not work for me. These are a great value. No need to order Nexium. Same results, much more cost effective. Highly recommended.

Thank god for this product. Fast and efficient!

I’ve been taking this for years and it is a lot cheaper than Nexium and works just as well for me. I only have to take one every other day but believe me, if I forget I will regret it!

Quick shipping and great product!

SOURCE : This is an FDA's approved, proton-pump inhibitor [PPI] that Amazon packages and labels. The phone number for the "Question or comments" printed on the box (see my figure A) shows that Amazon's source is L. Perrigo, a Michigan pharmaceutical company legally headquartered in Ireland for tax purposes, which owns a number of subsidiaries around the world, including Agis Industries in Israel, where this generic OTC drug is likely manufactured. INGREDIENTS : [1] The active ingredient is a magnesium salt in dihydrate form of esomeprazole, the chiral s-isomer of the older PPI omeprazole. Although these ingredients cannot be differentiated analytically (but for their chirality), their clinical effects are not identical -- a number of studies have shown that esomeprazole provides better control of intragastric pH and is more effective in treating GERD's esophagitis than omeprazole. [2] Three of the excipients listed on the box (see my figure A) are worth of comment. One is gelatin, used for the capsules, whose origin is unspecified; those with vegetarian or vegan affinities should be aware that, quite more often than not, unspecified gelatin derives from animal tissues (cattle, pork, chicken) rather than cellulose. [3] Another is titanium dioxide, whose dust is deemed a hazardous material by OSHA, and was classified as a "possible carcinogenic" in 2006 by the International Agency for Research on Cancer due to its common use in the form of nanoparticles. Furthermore, the European Food Safety Authority no longer considers titanium dioxide safe as a food additive as of June 2021. [4] The third are the artificial food colorants [AFC] blue#1 and red#3. Adults with ADHD taking this drug ought to be aware that the controversial claims of food dyes posing a hyperactivity risk are not without scientific support, at least regarding small but non-trivial harmful effects on children’s behavior. An example of that is the 2007 Southampton study of McCann and others, a UK clinical trial [reg. no. ISRCTN4481308] that led the European Parliament in 2008 to ask manufacturers to remove several dyes from foods and beverages, or to put on the label the warning "may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children." This contrasts with the latter, 8-to-6 vote, FDA's decision against such a warning in a 2011 hearing. On April 2021, the California's Office of Environmental Health Hazards Assessment issued a peer-reviewed report concluding that AFCs are associated with adverse neurobehavioral outcomes in children. Adding food dyes to prettify small gelatin capsules for adults is a daft absurdity. RISKS : Taking this PPI at a prescription dose level (e.g., 40 mg), or when it is continued well beyond the recommended course of treatment, or both, involves a number of potential health risks, some better known than others. Worth of comment is hypomagnesemia (that is, low magnesium levels in blood), which can be significantly magnified by antihypertensive drugs, particularly thiazide or loop diuretics in combination with beta-blockers, angiotensin receptor blockers, or ACE inhibitors. PACKAGING : The three-bottle box I got is an ode to plastic waste -- each unopened bottle of about 55 cc is 3/4 empty, and putting the capsules of all the bottles into one (see my figure B) leaves it about 2/3 empty. (Meanwhile in France plastics are being phased out, Amazon...) __

Eliminated acid reflux within two days. Hasn’t come back. I take it first thing in the morning when my stomach is empty.

He probado las cápsulas de esomeprazol magnesio 20 mg cápsula de liberación retardada y realmente han sido una gran ayuda para mi problema de acidez. Desde los primeros días noté una mejoría significativa, especialmente en la sensación de ardor y el reflujo. Me gusta que es de liberación retardada, porque actúa de forma continua durante el día, manteniendo el estómago protegido. Además, es fácil de tomar y no me ha causado efectos secundarios. Este medicamento funciona reduciendo la producción de ácido en el estómago, lo que ayuda a aliviar síntomas como la acidez, el reflujo y molestias digestivas .Lo recomiendo totalmente para quienes sufren de acidez frecuente o problemas gástricos. Excelente calidad y resultados confiables.
