Product Information

Nexium Control is a clinically proven medicine for the short-term treatment of reflux symptoms, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation, in adults. As a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), it works by directly reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach.

Why Choose Nexium Control?

  • Targeted Relief: It provides 24-hour protection from heartburn symptoms with just one tablet daily.
  • Scientific Backing: Clinical studies demonstrated that esomeprazole 20mg is significantly more effective than placebo in achieving complete resolution of heartburn and acid regurgitation.
  • Trusted Active Ingredient: Nexium Control contains esomeprazole, the same active substance found in the prescription-only 'reference medicine' Nexium, but is available without a prescription for short-term use.

Understanding Reflux: Helpful Lifestyle Tips

Heartburn and acid regurgitation occur when stomach acid flows back into the "foodpipe" (gullet). Clinical data and pharmaceutical guidelines suggest the following lifestyle adjustments may help manage symptoms:

  • Eat smaller, more frequent meals and avoid eating large meals late at night.
  • Avoid triggers such as spicy or fatty foods, chocolate, caffeine, and alcohol.
  • Lose weight if you are overweight and consider quitting smoking.

How to use

Nexium Usage Guidance

To ensure the best results and your safety, please follow these evidence-based instructions:

  • Dose: Take one 20 mg tablet once a day.
  • Timing: It may take 2–3 consecutive days of treatment to achieve a noticeable improvement in symptoms.
  • How to Take: Swallow the tablet whole with half a glass of water. Do not chew or crush the tablet or its contents, as this can destroy the gastro-resistant coating.
  • Duration: The maximum treatment duration is 2 weeks. Once your symptoms are completely relieved, you should stop taking the medication.

When to Consult a Doctor Before Using Nexium Control

You must speak with a healthcare professional before starting Nexium Control if:

  • You are aged over 55 and have new or recently changed reflux symptoms.
  • You have a history of gastric ulcers or gastrointestinal surgery.
  • You have severe liver disease or jaundice.
  • You are taking medications that may interact with esomeprazole, such as Atazanavir (for HIV) or Clopidogrel (a blood thinner).
  • You are due for an endoscopy or a urea breath test.

Urgent Warnings

Seek medical advice immediately if you experience significant unintentional weight loss, recurrent vomiting, or difficulty swallowing. Additionally, if your symptoms worsen or do not improve after 14 days of continuous use, you must contact your doctor.

Pregnancy and Breast-feeding

  • Pregnancy: As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid use during pregnancy.
  • Breast-feeding:Nexium Control should not be used during breast-feeding.
