What is Nexium

How does Nexium work
Nexium contains the active ingredient esomeprazole - a type of medicine known as a proton pump inhibitor.
The cells lining the stomach contain proton pumps, which work to produce the stomach acid that is an essential part of the body's digestive process. Esomeprazole inhibits the action of these proton pumps, reducing acid production and preventing the overflow into the oesophagus (food pipe).
