Interactions
Esomeprazole is metabolized through the cytochrome P450 system, specially through the CYP3A  isozymes.  Studies  have  shown  that  Esomeprazole  does  not  have  clinically  significant interactions with other drugs metabolized by the cytochrome P450 system, such as  warfarin,  antipyrine,  indomethacin,  ibuprofen,  phenytoin,  propranolol,  prednisolone,  diazepam, clarithromycin or terfenadine in healthy subject.
Clarithromycin  use  in  patients  who  are  receiving  theophylline  may  be  associated  with  an  increase of serum theophylline concentrations.
There have been reports of interactions of clarithromycin with carbamazepine, cyclosporine, tactrolimus,   hexobarbital,   phenytoin,   alfetanil,   disopyramide,   lovastatin,   bromocriptine,   valproate, terfenadine, cisapride, pimozide & astemizole.

                        Mode of Action
Amoxicillin: Inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more penicillin binding proteins that in turn inhibit the final transpeptidation step of peptoglycan synthesis in cell wall biosynthesis.
Clarithromycin: Inhibits protein synthesis by binding to 50S ribosomal subunit causing antibacterial activity.
Esomeprazole is a PPI that suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting H+/K+ ATPase in the gastric parietal cell.
