The Nexium 24HR Effect

PPIs PPIs, or proton pump inhibitors like Nexium 24HR, treat frequent heartburn by blocking the production of acid at the source. PPIs may take 1-4 days for full effect, but remains effective over consecutive doses.	H2s H2s, or histamine blockers, treat heartburn by blocking one of the signals that tell your body to make acid. They start working within 30 minutes and their effects can last up to 12 hours. If taken more than a few days in a row, they can become less effective.	Antacids Antacids treat heartburn by neutralizing the acid in your stomach but do not reduce acid production at its source. Antacids work quickly, but last for only 1-3 hours after use.
