The pain and discomfort caused by GERD can disrupt all aspects of daily living. GERD stands for GastroEsophageal
Reflux Disease, a medical condition which involves the ”reflux” of stomach contents into the esophagus. In Western
countries, approximately 10-20 per cent of the adult population experiences regular heartburn weekly, the primary
symptoms of GERD1.
This animation shows how the proton pump inhibitor Nexium® treat the symptoms of GERD by controlling the
production and lowering the level of acid in the stomach.
