Esona Tablet 500 mg + 20 mg is a combination medicine containing Naproxen Sodium and Esomeprazole Magnesium. It is used for the relief of pain, inflammation, and swelling in various musculoskeletal and joint conditions while also protecting the stomach from acid-related side effects caused by painkillers.
Naproxen Sodium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces pain and inflammation. Esomeprazole Magnesium is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces excess stomach acid production, helping prevent gastric irritation, ulcers, and acidity associated with long-term NSAID use.

How Esona Tablet Works
Naproxen Sodium
Naproxen works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are responsible for producing prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation.
Esomeprazole Magnesium
Esomeprazole reduces stomach acid by blocking the proton pump in gastric cells, thereby:
-
Protecting the stomach lining
-
Reducing risk of ulcers and gastritis
-
Improving tolerance of NSAID therapy
Together, the combination provides effective pain relief with reduced gastrointestinal side effects.
