I have started to have a drawing (or
puckering) sensation in my throat and my
lips pucker when this happens. I does not
last very long and then my mouth and
throat go back to normal. I was wondering
if this was one of side effects of the
Nexium. None of the Drs I have seen have
an answer for me and it is driving me
crazy. Thanks for your help.

A drawing or puckering sensation in the
throat and lips are not known side effects
of Nexium (esomeprazole). Your symptoms
could be due to anxiety, since so many
doctors couldn't identify the reason.
