Benefits

Nexium offers long-lasting relief from the symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux, including discomfort and a burning sensation. Using Nexium allows for healing of the esophageal lining in most people with erosive esophagitis.

How it works

Esomeprazole, the active ingredient in Nexium, acts directly on the proton pump, a type of cell in the stomach that is responsible for producing stomach acid. By reducing the activity of the proton pump, Nexium effectively reduces the amount of acid produced.
