Prilosec and Nexium is for heartburn. Prilosec is taken over a 14 day period and can only be taken every 4 months. Not sure about dosing for Nexium but Prilosec is often prescribed because it is over the counter.

Hello!
If you have acidity symptoms such as heart burn, acid brash, acid regurgitation, gastritis, peptic ulcer then you would need medications such as antacids, H2 blockers and proton pump inhibitors to counter the action of the acid.
So Prilosec and Nexium fall into the class of proton pump inhibitors. Do not self prescribe and I would suggest you to follow up with a gastroenterologist for a proper diagnosis and for titration of the dosage for you.
Take care!
