How It Works
Omeprazole works by blocking the proton pump in stomach cells, which produces stomach acid. This delayed-release formulation ensures the medication is absorbed in the intestine, protecting it from stomach acid breakdown and providing targeted, sustained acid reduction.
Dosage
Condition | Standard Dosage | Maximum Daily Dosage |
---|---|---|
GERD | 1 capsule daily | 2 capsules daily |
Ulcers | 1 capsule daily | 2 capsules daily |
H. Pylori | 2 capsules daily | 2 capsules daily |
Take capsule whole with water, preferably before eating. Do not crush or chew. Take at the same time each day.
Duration of Action
Omejek begins reducing acid production within hours of first dose. Maximum acid suppression occurs after 3-5 days of consistent use. Symptomatic relief typically occurs within 24-48 hours. Long-term management requires continuous use as prescribed by healthcare provider.
Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, nausea, and mild digestive discomfort. Some patients may experience dizziness, dry mouth, or minor stomach upset. Rare but serious side effects can include severe allergic reactions, kidney problems, or increased risk of bone fractures with long-term use.
Warning
Do not exceed recommended dosage. Prolonged use may increase risk of vitamin B12 deficiency, bone fractures, and magnesium deficiency. Avoid if allergic to omeprazole or similar medications. Short-term use is recommended when possible. Consult healthcare provider for extended treatment.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Use during pregnancy only when clearly needed and benefits outweigh potential risks. Limited data suggests minimal risk during breastfeeding, but consult healthcare provider. Potential effects on infant nutrition should be carefully considered.
