How does Nexium work?
NEXIUM works as a proton pump motor inhibitor (PPI), which in turn is an efficient remedy for gerd. PPIs operate simply by rotating away from many of the “acid pumps” inside stomach’s acid-producing cells. That reduces how much acid solution inside stomach. Actually, for many, 1 NEXIUM tablet daily can offer 24-hour relief from lingering, repeated heartburn.
