Used For:

Omeprazole is used to treat conditions related to excessive stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It works by inhibiting the proton pump in the stomach lining, thereby reducing the production of gastric acid, which helps alleviate symptoms like heartburn and acid reflux.

Side Effects:

Common side effects may include headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. Some individuals may also experience dizziness or flatulence. Long-term use of Omeprazole may be associated with risks such as vitamin B12 deficiency, kidney problems, and gastrointestinal infections.

Precautions:

Omeprazole should be used with caution in individuals with liver disease, as dosage adjustments may be needed. Patients should inform their healthcare provider about all medications they are taking to avoid potential interactions, particularly with drugs that require a specific stomach pH for optimal absorption. If symptoms persist or worsen, or if any unusual symptoms or severe reactions occur, medical attention should be sought. It’s important to avoid abruptly stopping Omeprazole without consulting a healthcare provider, especially after long-term use
