Naproxen/esomeprazole fixed-dose combination: for the treatment of arthritic symptoms and to reduce the risk of gastric ulcers.
Naproxen/esomeprazole is a fixed-dose combination of the NSAID naproxen and the proton pump inhibitor esomeprazole. In two well designed, 12-week studies, naproxen/esomeprazole fixed-dose combination was noninferior to celecoxib in treating the signs and symptoms of disease in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee, as assessed by the mean change from baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index pain and function scores and Patient Global Assessment scores (coprimary endpoints). Two other studies showed that the cumulative incidence of gastric ulcers (primary efficacy measure) was significantly lower with naproxen/esomeprazole than with enteric-coated naproxen alone during up to 6 months' therapy in patients with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis or any other condition requiring daily NSAID therapy. The fixed-dose combination was generally well tolerated in these studies, with an upper gastrointestinal tolerability profile generally better than that of naproxen and similar to that of celecoxib.

Factors Affecting Quality of Life and Satisfaction in Patients with Arthritis after Change to a Fixed-Dose Naproxen/Esomeprazole Combination Drug.
In drug therapy for patients with arthritis, a naproxen/esomeprazole combination drug may be a tolerable choice because it can minimize gastrointestinal and cardiovascular adverse effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in quality of life (QOL), medication adherence, and satisfaction after switch from the existing drug to the combination drug. In addition, we analyzed the correlation between the above-mentioned variables and the stratified demographic and medical data of the patients.. A prospective, noninterventional, observational study was conducted in 30 hospitals between May 2014 and July 2016. In total, 2,308 patients with osteoarthritis, 99 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and 76 patients with ankylosing spondylitis were enrolled. Demographic information (age, sex, body mass index [BMI], alcohol consumption, and smoking) and medical information (type of arthritis, duration of disease, and comorbidities) were collected via a self-administered questionnaire. Patients were observed for more than three months after switching to the combination drug. Data on the QOL (EuroQoL 5-Dimension questionnaire [EQ-5D questionnaire]), medication adherence (Morisky Medication Adherence Scale [MMAS]), and satisfaction were collected at the first and last visits.. A total of 2,483 patients enrolled at 30 hospitals completed the questionnaire. After the switch to the combination drug, the mean EQ-5D score improved from 0.72 ± 0.17 to 0.79 ± 0.14 (. The overall QOL was improved with medium adherence after the switch to the combination drug. On the basis of the analysis of stratified data, sex, age, drinking, smoking, disease duration, comorbidities, and BMI might be associated with QOL, satisfaction, and adherence.
