Description

What Are Vimovo MR Tablets?

Vimovo MR Tablets are a prescription medication that is used to treat pain and inflammation. The tablets are a combination of two medications - naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and esomeprazole magnesium is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). When taken together, the two medications work to provide relief from pain and inflammation.

How does Vimovo Work?

Vimovo MR Tablets work by blocking enzymes in the body that can cause pain and inflammation. Vimovo MR Tablets are a combination of two medicines, esomeprazole and naproxen. Esomeprazole works by reducing the amount of acid that is produced by the stomach, thus protecting the stomach lining from damage, and Naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works to reduce pain and inflammation in the body. This combination of ingredients makes Vimovo MR Tablets effective for treating various conditions.
