Buy Nexium Tablets 40mg Online In The UK

 

Nexium 40mg Tablets are an effective treatment for acid reflux. It contains esomeprazole, a powerful proton pump inhibitor (PPI). They are used to treat acid reflux (GORD), heartburn and indigestion, as well as stomach ulcers, and for preventing ulcers caused by anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs). 

 

Esomeprazole reduces the amount of acid your stomach makes and relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, sour taste, and persistent cough. The 40mg tablet is usually prescribed more frequently for people who have excessive symptoms that will not respond to a lower dose, or when a stronger dose is needed for healing inflammation in the oesophagus. 

 

Nexium smooths and calms the stomach to help make your day relatively calm. Nexium can also protect the lining of your stomach. Making it one of the most trusted PPIs for managing both short-term and chronic acid-related conditions. 

How to Take Nexium 40mg Tablets

Take Nexium exactly as your prescriber advises. The typical dose for adults is one 40mg tablet once daily. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet, as this affects how it’s absorbed.

Best Way and Time to Take It

Nexium should ideally be taken in the morning before food. Taking it consistently at the same time each day helps maintain steady stomach-acid control.

If you forget a dose, take it when you remember—unless it’s close to the next dose. Do not take two tablets at once.
