Neksium 40 mg Tablet

Neksium 40 mg Tablet is used to treat problems caused by excess stomach acid. These include acid reflux (GERD), stomach ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It works by lowering the amount of acid the stomach makes, which helps relieve symptoms and allows the stomach to heal.

This medicine is also used to prevent stomach ulcers that can be caused by long-term use of painkillers such as NSAIDs. Always take Neksium exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

Neksium 40 mg Tablet is usually taken on an empty stomach, preferably in the morning or at least one hour before eating. Even if you start feeling better, continue taking the medicine until your doctor tells you to stop. If taken for a long time, your doctor may check your magnesium levels, as this medicine can lower them.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Headache
• Constipation or diarrhea
• Stomach pain
• Nausea

These are usually mild. However, tell your doctor if they continue or become troublesome. The chance of side effects may increase with long-term use. Using this medicine for a long time may also increase the risk of bone fractures.

To help reduce symptoms, avoid foods that trigger acidity, such as spicy, fatty, or rich foods. Limiting tea, coffee, soft drinks, and alcohol may also help.
