NEXIUM is indicated for the short-term treatment (4 to 8 weeks) in the healing and symptomatic resolution of diagnostically confirmed erosive esophagitis.

The most frequently reported adverse events with NEXIUM include headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Symptomatic response to therapy does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy.

As with all PPIs, patients treated concomitantly with warfarin may need to be monitored for increases in INR and prothrombin time.

Concomitant administration of esomeprazole may reduce the plasma levels of atazanavir.

NEXIUM should be used only for the conditions, dosages, and durations specified in the Prescribing Information. Please see full Prescribing Information.

NEXIUM and the color purple as applied to the capsule are registered trademarks of the AstraZeneca group of companies.
