Essentially: There are no good "head to head" trials of the meds so I can not say for sure one does not do slightly better than the other, but the avail studies do not show this. They do work very diff though and some individuals may respond better to one than the other. However, the choice of which to use often has to do with other factors. For example GERD & Barret's Esoph may sway you one way cost another.
