Can anyone recommend an OTC that is comparable to nexium

I had my surgery 7 months ago and was trying to stop taking my nexium basically because my prescription ran out of refills but I realize I still need it. I can’t get an appointment with my doctor till next week and they won’t just refill because I missed my last appointment. Does any know what I can take that is over the counter that is the same as nexium? Thank you Janine

Read the active ingredient in Nexium and then buy the generic store brand which will be named what the active ingredient is. Alot cheaper!

My Nexium is 40mg. Like Wendal said, look for the generic version of prevacid or something and check the milligrams, you might have to take two.

I use Zegerid OTC. It has an additive that is supposed to help medicine absorption. Prilosec didn't work as well for me - even though it has the same active ingredient. If the generics and Prilosec don't work very well, try Zegerid.
