Switching from Omeprazole to NexIUM: Any Difference?

I am supposed to start taking NexIUM and Cerefate to replace the Omeprazole (40 mg.) that I've been on for many years, which lost its effectiveness over time. Has anyone noticed that NexIUM works better than Omeprazole?

Carefate worked much better for me then anything else. I really saw a difference when I went off of it. From what I understood there is damage in my esophogus from the years I suffered.

  @Stephann I noticed I did not answer the actual question however.... Omeprazole was much better for me. Nexium didnt touch the burn.

    @Stephann Oh, wow! I thought NexIUM is a stronger drug than Omeprazole. Kind of bummed to hear that. It's taking several days for my health insurance to approve of the 2X per day dose. Meantime, I feel like I'm croaking at night.
