What causes heartburn?
Heartburn is a symptom of indigestion that causes a burning sensation behind the breastbone. It occurs when stomach acid passes from the stomach into your oesophagus. Heartburn is usually experienced after eating or drinking and although it can be uncomfortable, it isn’t  usually a sign of something serious. Other symptoms of indigestions include:
Feeling uncomfortably full or heavy
Belching or flatulence (passing wind)
Bringing food or fluid back up from the stomach
Bloating
Feeling sick (nausea)
Vomiting
There are many factors that can cause heartburn including:
A side effect of medications
Obesity
Stress or anxiety
How can Nexium Control help to treat heartburn?
Nexium Control contains the active substance esomeprazole which belongs to a group of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors. This active ingredient works by reducing the amount of acid that your stomach produces. It can be used by adults over the age of 18 for the short-term treatment of heartburn and acid reflux. Nexium is not intended for immediate relief of heartburn. You may have to take the capsules for 2-3 days in a row before you begin to feel better.
