See doc: After a week of nexium, (esomeprazole) if you are no better, you need to see a doctor to see what is wrong. It could be something serious or something not so serious, but only a good history, physical and workup can tell which. For now, avoid caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, spicy, greasy food, lying flat, sorbitol and splenda. Don't eat for a couple of hours before bedtime either. Stop any supplements, too.
