What is Nexium 24-Hour?
Understanding Frequent Heartburn
Nexium 24-Hour is an over-the-counter medication designed to provide relief from frequent heartburn. Frequent heartburn is defined as heartburn that occurs two or more days a week. It works by reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach, preventing heartburn symptoms before they start. This product contains Esomeprazole Magnesium, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
How Nexium 24-Hour Works
Nexium 24-Hour contains Esomeprazole Magnesium, which blocks acid production in the stomach. It does this by binding to the proton pumps in the stomach lining, which are responsible for producing stomach acid. By blocking these pumps, Nexium 24-Hour reduces the amount of acid released, preventing heartburn. It's not an immediate relief medication but provides all-day, all-night protection when taken as directed.
Key Benefits of Nexium 24-Hour
24-Hour Heartburn Relief
With a single daily dose, Nexium 24-Hour provides all-day, all-night protection from heartburn. This allows you to manage your day without the discomfort and interruption of frequent heartburn episodes. The delayed-release capsules ensure the medication is released over time for consistent relief.
Effective Acid Reduction
Nexium 24-Hour effectively reduces the amount of stomach acid produced, targeting the root cause of frequent heartburn. By blocking acid production, it helps prevent the burning sensation in your chest and throat, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and activities.

Convenient Dosage and Usage
Nexium 24-Hour is easy to incorporate into your daily routine. It comes in an easy-to-swallow capsule, and the recommended dosage is one capsule per day, taken before a meal. This simple regimen makes it convenient to manage frequent heartburn effectively.
How to Use Nexium 24-Hour
Dosage and Administration
Take one Nexium 24-Hour capsule with a glass of water, at least 30 minutes before your first meal of the day. It's important to take the medication consistently for the full 14-day course of treatment, even if your symptoms improve. You can repeat a 14-day course every four months if necessary, as directed by your doctor. Do not crush or chew the capsule.
