Active Ingredient: Omeprazole
Uses:
- Acid-related disorders: Acid reflux, heartburn, ulcers, and other conditions caused by excess stomach acid.
How it Works:
Omeprazole inhibits the production of stomach acid by blocking the proton pump, a mechanism that pumps hydrogen ions into the stomach.
Important Considerations:
- Side Effects: Common side effects include headache, diarrhea, and constipation.
- Drug Interactions: Omeprazole can interact with other medications, so it’s important to inform your doctor about all medications you are currently taking.
- Long-term Use: Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors may increase the risk of certain infections and bone fractures.
