Step 1
1 of 2Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used to treat stomach acid reflux. It decreases stomach acid production when taken once a day. The acid produces discomfort, heartburn, dysphagia, and coughing. The medicine takes around 4 weeks to work fully.
It can also be used in combination with antibiotics in the H. pylori eradication regime, which lasts for 10-14 days.
