The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Nexium (esomeprazole) for the treatment of heartburn, acid reflux, and other acid-related conditions. In addition, the drug is being evaluated for its efficacy against esomeprazole. A recent review in the New England Journal of Medicine in September 2023 found that up to a third of patients who take Nexium (esomeprazole) for more than four months will require long-term reflux treatment. In addition to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and esomeprazole, there is a significant increased risk of heartburn and other acid-related conditions from taking Nexium.
While some patients may not tolerate the drug, these concerns are not limited to the treatment of acid reflux and GERD. Other conditions that have been found to be more effective with Nexium include:

In September 2023, the FDA approved two new formulations of PPIs: Nexium 24HR (esomeprazole extended-release) and Nexium 20HR (esomeprazole extended-release). The two new formulations are intended to replace Nexium and be taken as a daily pill. The new formulations of Nexium and Nexium 20HR can be ordered through telemedicine, but they are not available over the counter. Nexium 24HR and Nexium 20HR are available OTC.

Do I get instant relief from taking a Nexium tablet?
Nexium Control is not meant to bring immediate relief. You may need to take the tablets for 2-3 days in a row before you feel better. You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 14 days.
How much to take• The recommended dose is one tablet a day. • Do not take more than this recommended dose of one tablet (20 mg) a day, even if you don’t feel an improvement immediately. • You may need to take the tablets for 2 or 3 days in a row before your reflux symptoms (for example, heartburn and acid regurgitation) get better. • The treatment length is up to 14 days. • When your reflux symptoms have completely gone you should stop taking this medicine. • If your reflux symptoms get worse or do not improve after taking this medicine for 14 days in a row, you should consult a doctor.

It is important not to damage the pellets.
