Core Tip |
A mainstay therapy of erosive esophagitis (EE) is acid suppression using proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which have shortcomings such as their slow absorption and variability in metabolism. Acid suppression can be competitively and reversibly achieved by a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, fexuprazan. We compared the efficacy and safety of fexuprazan and esomeprazole (each 40 mg once daily) in patients with EE for 8 wk. We conclude that fexuprazan is a new alternative to PPIs, by showing that fexuprazan is not inferior to esomeprazole in endoscopic healing rate of EE at week 8 and in safety profiles. |
