Is it ok to tale nexium with food or it must always be taken empty stomach?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nexium: Nexium should be taken 1 hour before a meal. Per Jen Marsico, RPh: "when Nexium is taken with food, it is less available to the body." See: http://www.everydayhealth.com/drugs/nexium. Take as directed.
