Hi. If your daughter is continuing with antacids and Nexium with no more the result of the first days I'd suggest to double the dose of Nexium from 1 time a dayto two times a day for example and to "wait and see" for a while. I'd recommend some Motilium for a few days just a prochinetic. If it will continue again like this then an upper digestive endoscopy is indicated.
