A member asked:
I take 40mg nexium (24 hour) in the morning but by nighttime, i need more. can i take an extra 20mg?

I would try lifestyle changes before adding more meds. Do not lay down for at least an hour after meals. Avoid caffeine or chocolate for 6-8 hrs before reclining. Avoid foods you know add to your discomfort. Give this 2 weeks then ask your doc if it is not helping.
