What are Nexium Control Capsules?
Nexium Control Capsules provide all-day relief from heartburn and acid reflux for people who suffer with frequent symptoms.
Nexium Control reduces the acid build up in the stomach and therefore reduces heartburn systems.
As it works for 24 hours it can provide relief all day and night.
With the help of the active ingredient Esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, Nexium control can reduce the build up of excess stomach acid by blocking the acid pumps in the stomach.
