What is Reflux?
Reflux is the backflow of acid from the stomach into the gullet (“foodpipe”) which may become inflamed and painful. This may cause you symptoms such as a painful sensation in the chest rising up to your throat (heartburn) and a sour taste in the mouth (acid regurgitation).
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. If you have persistent or longstanding, frequently recurring symptoms even after treatment with this medicine, you should contact your doctor. Taking this medicine • You can take your tablet at any time of the day either with food or on an empty stomach. • Swallow your tablet whole with half a glass of water. Do not chew or crush the tablet. This is because the tablet contains coated pellets, which stop the medicine from being broken down by the acid in your stomach. It is important not to damage the pellets.
Alternative method of taking this medicine• Put the tablet in a glass of still (non-fizzy) water. Do not use any other liquids. • Stir until the tablet breaks up (the mixture will not be clear) then drink the mixture straight away or within 30 minutes. Always stir the mixture just before drinking it. • To make sure that you have drunk all of the medicine, rinse the glass very well with half a glass of water and drink it. The solid pieces contain the medicine – do not chew or crush them

The Nexium Acid Tablets are a combination of two active ingredients, esomeprazole magnesium (Gastrozol) and magnesium trihydrate (Ma3) in a single capsule. They are designed to effectively treat reflux, heartburn and acid reflux symptoms by neutralizing acid, improving stomach acid, reducing stomach acid and reducing stomach contents.
Esomeprazole
is an acid blocker, and it blocks the proton pump that breaks down stomach acid. This helps to relieve acid reflux symptoms, acid-related diarrhea, acid-related cramps and acid reflux. It also relieves heartburn and acid reflux symptoms, such as heartburn.
Mg3
Gastrozol and Ma3 contain magnesium trihydrate, a proton pump inhibitor, which helps reduce stomach acid production. It reduces stomach acid production by reducing the amount of stomach acid produced by the stomach. This can help to reduce symptoms of acid reflux, acid-related diarrhea, acid-related cramps and acid reflux.
Nexium
Nexium, or Esomeprazole, is used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and acid reflux. It works by reducing stomach acid production and promoting healing. It is available in four strengths, 20 mg, 40 mg, 80 mg, and 100 mg.
This drug blocks the proton pump inhibitor esomeprazole. This helps to relieve acid reflux symptoms by reducing stomach acid production.
