 Young star ASHLEE SIMPSON has been praised by a drug company for raising the profile of acid-reflux disease.
The singer blamed "severe acid reflux" for her lip-synch performance on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE last year.
And the makers of medications Nexium are thrilled with the free promotion.
ASTRAZENECA's DAVID ALBAUGH tells gossip site THE SCOOP, "Somebody of her high profile helps raise the profile of the disease. Obviously, it's good to have improved and increased awareness of acid reflux."
A spokesperson for TAP - which makes PREVACID - says, "We believe that celebrities who talk about their experience with certain health conditions, such as acid reflux in this case, can help educate people on important health issues, as well as motivate people to talk to their doctors and get properly diagnosed and treated.
"We wish Ashlee Simpson the very best on her road to relief from acid reflux."
