ZEGERID is an oral suspension combining omeprazole with sodium bicarbonate, a proton pump inhibitor that suppresses gastric acid secretion by blocking the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system in gastric parietal cells. It is indicated for acid-reflux conditions and works by inhibiting both basal and stimulated acid secretion regardless of the stimulus. The sodium bicarbonate component enables rapid onset of action compared to omeprazole alone.
Product is approaching loss of exclusivity with moderate competitive pressure (30/100), suggesting defensive commercial strategy and potential team consolidation opportunities.
