"I was taking pantoprazole in October, and it helped with the acid reflux. After taking it for a week, I started having burning in my arm, shoulder, legs, and stomach. But like a crazy person, I kept taking it. I started having anxiety, and I started losing weight - 18 pounds within one month. But eventually, I got myself off of it and started taking Nexium, and it did not work either, I started losing patches of my hair. I started researching both medications, and they both were in the worst pill list. I’m now taking Zantac 150, hopefully, this will work."

"Asthma physician prescribed Nexium 40 mg for me after I needed to use my asthma inhaler 4 times a day. Over time, I was diagnosed with long-standing hiatal hernia and GERD. I continue to use Nexium to manage my breakthrough reflux, and the result has been wonderful for me, save for occasional nuisance bloating. Thanks."

"Had GERD for 3 weeks, couldn't even sleep at night. So I decided to try Nexium 24HR after a bit of research. I've been on it now for 5 days, and for me, it works wonders. Now I can even eat, got my appetite back. All I can say after reading a lot of reviews, pros and cons, it really helped me, but to each his or her own. I had nothing to lose."
