Nexium (Esomeprazole) is used to treat conditions in which there is too much acid in the stomach. Nexium is used to treat duodenal ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Sometimes Nexium is used along with antibiotics to treat ulcers associated with infection caused by the H. pylori bacteria (germ).

Who should not take Nexium?
Before taking Nexium, tell your doctor if you have ever had any type of liver disease. You may not be able to take Nexium, or you may require a dosage adjustment or special monitoring.
Nexium is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is unlikely to harm an unborn baby. Do not take Nexium without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant.

How should I take Nexium?
Take Nexium exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these instructions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.
Take each dose with a full glass (8 ounces) of water.
Nexium should be taken at least one hour before a meal. Follow your doctor's instructions.
Do not break or chew the capsules. Swallow them whole. They are specially formulated to release slowly in the body.
If you have difficulty swallowing the capsules, one tablespoon of applesauce can be added to an empty bowl and the Nexium capsule can be opened, and the pellets inside the capsule carefully emptied onto the applesauce. The pellets should be mixed with the applesauce and then swallowed immediately. The applesauce should not be hot and should be soft enough to be swallowed without chewing. The pellets should not be chewed or crushed. The pellet/applesauce mixture should not be stored for later use.
Do not stop taking Nexium even if you begin to feel better. Your symptoms may improve before the condition is fully treated.
Store Nexium at room temperature away from moisture and heat.
