Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

Nexium is a Esomeprazole which is used to treat and prevent peptic ulcers in the stomach and duodenum. It is used in combination to treat gastric ulcers that are caused by Helicobacter pylori infection.

This drug is not known to cause breathlessness. You need to take this medicine for atleast 1 month to reduce the symptoms.In addition to this drug you need to adopt healthy diet by avoiding hot and spicy food, drink plenty of water and avoid stress.
Your condition will improve with these remedies along with the nexium.
Thank you.
