Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To compare the complete healing of erosive esophagitis(EE) after 3 weeks of treatment with Secretol 80/80 versus Nexium 40 mg daily.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We hypothesize that Secretol 80/80 daily will demonstrate better efficacy than Nexium 40 mg daily in healing erosive esophagitis(EE)and controlling gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)related symptoms after 3 weeks of treatment.In addition, Secretol 80/80 daily will have a faster effect on the aforementioned clinical parameters but a similar safety profile.
