Brief Answer:
There are definitely alternatives

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

There are definitely alternatives. I suggest you try either ranitidine, an antacid (e.g. balancid) or Galieve/Gaviscon.

You could also try taking nexium and eltroxin one hour apart to prevent the problems with absorption.

Hope this helps, and please keep me posted on your health.
