I am worried if I miss a dose my acid reflux will flare up. Thanks!
I can't remember if I took my dose of Nexium 40mg this morning. Is it OK to take one now?

I would have thought it safe as I am prescribed 40mg twice daily and suffer no ill effects at all that I am aware of. (I'm 190 pounds if that makes a difference) Do not mistake this for authoritative medical advice however.

I would wait until your next dose is due,. Perhaps take it a little earlier than normal if your reflux is flaring up. Overdosing can be dangerous.
