Authors' recommendations:
Esomeprazole (Nexium® IV) is recommended as an option for use within NHS Wales for gastric antisecretory treatment when the oral route is not possible, such as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) in patients with erosive reflux oesophagitis and/or severe symptoms of reflux for children and adolescents aged 1–18 years of age.
AWMSG is of the opinion that esomeprazole (Nexium® IV) is suitable for specialist only prescribing within NHS Wales for the above indication.
