What is Nexium 24-Hour Acid Reducer?
Overview

This product contains Esomeprazole Magnesium, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the production of stomach acid. It is specifically formulated for individuals experiencing heartburn symptoms two or more days a week.
Key Features and Benefits
- 24-Hour Relief: Offers all-day and all-night protection against heartburn.

How Does Nexium 24-Hour Acid Reducer Work?
Mechanism of Action
Nexium 24-Hour works by blocking the "pumps" in the stomach lining that produce acid. The active ingredient, Esomeprazole Magnesium, inhibits these proton pumps, reducing the amount of acid released into the stomach. This mechanism helps to prevent heartburn and allows the esophageal lining to heal.

Take one capsule of Nexium 24-Hour Acid Reducer with a glass of water, at least 30-60 minutes before your first meal of the day. Do not crush or chew the capsule. It is important to complete the full 14-day course for optimal results, even if your symptoms improve.
