Accepted Answer

Symptoms on Nexium: Nexium is in the class of medications called proton pump inhibitors (PPI), similar to Prilosec, Prevacid, Protonix, and Aciphex. Sometimes, can have symptoms on one but not another, so it sounds reasonable to try another one in this class. Pepsid is not a PPI; it is an H2 blocker, like Zantac, Tagamet and Axid. These can be used with PPI, however if you need both, should be under doctor orders.
