Dr. Reddy's relaunches its generic Nexium

HYDERABAD, India — Dr. Reddy's on Wednesday announced that it has relaunched its esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release capsues, the generic version of AstraZeneca's Nexium delayed-release capsules, in the United States.

The relaunch is due to a change in the capsue color.

Dr. Reddy's originally launched the drug in September 2015 for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, stomach ulcers and a damaged esophagus.
