How it works
Nexium Control AV belongs to the group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors. Unlike antacids, which only neutralise existing acid, this medicine tackles the core of the problem by reducing the amount of acid your stomach produces. This supports the recovery of the oesophagus and offers a sustainable solution for reflux symptoms in adults.
