Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Vonoprazan
Vonoprazan (20mg/day) is prescribed for patients with erosive esophagitis
Drug: Vonoprazan
Vonoprazan (20mg/day) is prescribed for 4 weeks.
Other Name: Esomeprazole

Placebo Comparator: Esomeprazole
Esomeprazole (20mg/day) is prescribed for patients with erosive esophagitis

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The number of patients who revisit our outpatient clinic after the prescription without any appointments [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    The need to revisit our outpatient clinic again without any appointments may show the patients' satisfaction or dissatisfaction after the prescription of vonoprazan or esomeprazole. The difference in the number between the two groups may show the difference in the effectiveness between the two medicines.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change of the main symptom with patients after/before medication when the patients revisit again [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    The ratio of the degree of the main symptom after/before taking the medicine Good 0%- Bad 100%


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Questionnaire on satisfaction with taking the medicine at revisiting [ Time Frame: 3months ]
    The patient's satisfaction is assessed using visual analogue scale (Exellent 100% to very bad 0%).
