What is Omeprazole?
Omeprazole is an oral capsule, prescription medication that is FDA approved to treat acid reflux.
How does Omeprazole work?
Omeprazole belongs to a group of drugs called proton-pump inhibitors, which work by reducing the amount of acid made in the stomach. It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing and persistent cough. When taken on a daily basis, acid reflux symptoms are greatly reduced without the need to time doses which is true with antacids and most over the counter treatments.
What can I expect?
Omeprazole takes around 1 hour to block the production of stomach acid and it’s maximal effect occurs around 2 hours after beginning therapy. The action of omeprazole can continue for about 3 days. Omeprazole must continue to be taken on a daily basis for the stomach acid to remain low. If Omeprazole is only taken on an “as needed” basis, you will most likely experience breakthrough acid reflux. Daily Omeprazole is the most effective way to keep acid reflux symptoms from coming back.
