Explanation:

GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) is typically treated with drugs that reduce acid production or neutralize acid. Nexium (esomeprazole), Pepcid (famotidine), Prilosec (omeprazole), Tagamet (cimetidine), Zantac (ranitidine), and Zegerid (omeprazole + sodium bicarbonate) are known GERD medications. Paxil is an antidepressant, and pepsinogen is a proenzyme, not a GERD - treating drug. So we identify the correct drugs.

Answer:

The drugs prescribed to treat GERD are:

• Nexium
• Pepcid
• Prilosec
• Tagamet
• Zantac
• Zegerid
