NEXIUM 24HR  (ESOMEPRAZOLE MAGNESIUM):  Esomeprazole is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux, ulcers). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. This medication helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, helps prevent ulcers, and may help prevent cancer of the esophagus. Esomeprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). If you are self-treating with this medication, over-the-counter esomeprazole products are used to treat frequent heartburn (occurring 2 or more days a week). Since it may take 1 to 4 days to have full effect, these products do not relieve heartburn right away. For over-the-counter products, carefully read the package instructions to make sure the product is right for you. Check the ingredients on the label even if you have used the product before. The manufacturer may have changed the ingredients. Also, products with similar brand names may contain different ingredients meant for different purposes. Taking the wrong product could harm you.   FDA Approval Date: 2015-11-23 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Peptic ulcer My son is 15 and has had 3 different GI Drs and 4 different diagnoses. 1-Abdominal migraines 2- peptic ulcers 3- gastroparesis 4- dumping syndrome. After they did a stomach emptying test they told us it was dumping syndrome. I'm still not sure that was a correct diagnosis since my son never finished the entire bowl of oatmeal. The nurse told us after about 3/4 of the oatmeal gone, she said that was good enough. To me, I think the entire bowl should've been eaten since they were watching the timing of the food passing through his stomach. I don't know. I'm not a Dr but if he had eaten the entire bowl, would there have been alittle food left in his stomach after 1 hr ?? Then it wouldn't be dumping syndrome…so I don't know what is wrong with him after trying for 9 yrs. He gets flare ups that come and go for about 2-3 months at a time. He wakes every morning with severe nausea, he losses weight, he only eats a few bites before he's full so he grazes all day, diarrhea, headaches. Then it suddenly disappears for no reason. So now we will talk about when he went on Nexium. My son went from a popular, center of attention, class clown, funny kid to ANXIETY. PANIC ATTACKS. CRYING. WANTING TO DIE. NOT WANTING TO LEAVE THE HOUSE. my husband did a lot of research and realized Nexium was doing this to a lot of people. I didn't. M 15 10 days

 4  Reflux some bloating/fluid retention, occasional night sweats, minor finger/hand cramps, dry mouth/metallic taste sensation, mild daytime fatigue relieved the symptoms, side effects were tolerable, and can't say for sure that the all of the S/Es were directly attributable to Nexium M 58 14 days
