Description
Esomeprazole ( e-so-MEP-ra-zole ) is used to treat conditions in which there is too much acid in the stomach. It is used to treat duodenal ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This is a condition in which the acid in the stomach washes back up into the esophagus. Sometimes esomeprazole is used along with antibiotics to treat ulcers associated with infection caused by the H. pylori bacteria (germ).
Why is Nexium prescribed?
Nexium is in a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors. It works by decreasing the amount of acid made in your stomach. Nexium is used to treat your esophagus, the area between your throat and stomach that has become irritated, painful, and swollen from too much acid in your stomach.
It is used to treat heartburn, acid indigestion, sour stomach, and other conditions in which the stomach makes too much acid. Nexium also is used in combination with antibiotics to treat ulcers.
How should Nexium be used?
Nexium comes as delayed-release (long-acting) capsule to take by mouth. For inflamed esophagus and other conditions in which the stomach makes too much acid, one capsule is usually taken once a day for 4 to 8 weeks. It may be used for up to 6 months after your symptoms have improved. For ulcers, one capsule is usually taken in combination with antibiotics once a day for 10 days.
Nexium should be swallowed whole and taken at least 1 hour before meals. Nexium may be taken with water, orange juice, apple juice, or yogurt.
If you cannot swallow the capsule, add one tablespoon of cool, soft applesauce to an empty bowl, open one Nexium capsule, and carefully sprinkle the pellets onto the applesauce. Mix the pellets with the applesauce and swallow the entire tablespoonful of applesauce and Nexium pellets immediately. Do not chew the pellets in the applesauce and do not save the pellets and applesauce for another dose.
Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use Nexium exactly as directed. Do not use more or less of it or use it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
If you are taking Nexium hydrochloride for your esophagus and other conditions in which the stomach makes too much acid, your symptoms should improve within 4 to 8 weeks. If your symptoms continue, or if they worsen, call your doctor. Your doctor may continue treatment for another 4 to 8 weeks.
If you are taking Nexium for your ulcer, your symptoms should improve within 10 days. If ulcer symptoms do not improve, or if they worsen, call your doctor.
someprazole works by decreasing the amount of acid produced by the stomach.
