Esomeprazole
Heartburn is caused by stomach acid rising up (reflux)
into the oesophagus. Frequent heartburn makes the
oesophagus sensitive to acid so it doesn’t take much to
trigger the pain.
NICE guidelines recommend PPIs as first line treatment
for frequent heartburn. Nexium Control treats the cause
3
and symptoms of frequent heartburn by reducing the
production of stomach acid.
