A member asked:
Is it better to take ppi like nexium 2 hrs after meal before going to bed instead of taking it in the mornings before breakfast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PPI: PPI is long acting and needs to be taken regularly to prevent acid formation. So you should take it regularly about the same time every day preferably in the morning.
