Nexium??????
I was given Nexium by my doctor for my acid reflux plus unexplained stomach pain. If I try not to take it my pains and acid reflux comes back. My question is…can I continue to take this medicine forever with no repercussions?
Does it matter what time you take Nexium? Just starting today.?
No it does not matter. I started on Nexium 2 months ago and I take mine in the morning. Whatever is easiest for you to remember. It works great!
Besides Nexium or other drugs what is a good cure for Acid Reflux (heartburn)?
The typical recommendations for acid reflux that do not include medication are:-Do not eat three to four hours before bedtime.-Raise the head of the bed (a brick under each of the two legs at the head of the bed are sufficient).-Avoid wearing tight clothing.-Avoid use of caffiene.-Avoid large meals (eat more frequent, smaller meals).If all else fails, see a doctor. You may have a structural defect (like a hiatal hernia) or other condition (like H. Pylori) that may need treatment.
What’s the cause of extremely sour taste in mouth?
I have it for couple of months. My primary care doctor prescribed me Nexium for acid reflux, but it didn’t help at all. It tastes like having a slice of lemon in my mouth all day long. I can’t stand it. I asked my husband to kiss me in the most extreme period to see if he feels it but he said I taste perfectyl fine.I haveno idea what to do
