- Nexium 20mg Esomeprazole Tablets is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux, ulcers). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough caused by acid reflux or the reflux of nonacidic stomach contents. This medication helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus and also helps prevent ulcers. Esomeprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). By lowering stomach acid levels, Nexium 20 mg reduces acid reflux into the esophagus and the resulting heartburn symptoms.

- Relieves gastric discomfort involving excessive stomach acid
- Treats acid reflux symptoms such as pain, inflammation and backwash (regurgitation) of food or sour liquid
- Treats or prevents stomach ulcers caused by medicines called NSAIDs (medications that relieve or reduce pain)

- Recommended dose is one Nexium 20 mg gastroresistant tablet each day. Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
- You can take your Nexium gastro-resistant tablets with food or on an empty stomach. Swallow your tablets whole with a drink of water. Do not chew or crush the tablets. This is because the tablets contain coated pellets which stop the medicine from being broken down by the acid in your stomach. It is important not to damage the pellets.
- Do not take Non-prescription esomeprazole for longer than 14 days or treat yourself with esomeprazole more often than once every 4 months without talking to your doctor. Call your doctor if your symptoms get worse or do not improve after 14 days or if your symptoms return sooner than 4 months after you finish your treatment.
