How long should you be taking Nexium for acid reflux?
I have been diagnosed with Acid Reflux and have been taking 1 Nexium tablet daily for about a year and a half. Although it is used for heartburn I have never had heartburn at any time. I wonder if there is a time limit on long you should be on it.

I wouldn’t think so, if you have concerns, stop taking it and see if your symptoms return. If they do, the Nexium is helping, if not, maybe your Acid Reflux isn’t severe enough to need medication.

Acid Reflux is a catchy name for problems caused by incomplete digestion of the food we eat. You may be amazed at how quickly you can solve digestion problems by simply taking a natural digestive supplement with your meals.Check out a supplement called PhytoBioForte Supreme at http://www.dna911.info It is the most potent plant based digestive enzyme product available.

It’s a bad idea to stop any medication without checking with your doctor first. Have you thought that the Nexium is the reason you don’t have heartburn?
BTW, people are on it for years w/o difficulty.
