💊 Omeprazole 20 mg capsules are a widely prescribed medicine used to reduce excess stomach acid. They are commonly used to treat acid reflux, heartburn, and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD).


How Omeprazole Works

🔬 Omeprazole belongs to a group of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It works by switching off the acid-producing pumps in the stomach. By lowering acid levels in the stomach, omeprazole helps relieve uncomfortable symptoms such as burning chest pain, indigestion, and acid regurgitation, while also protecting the stomach and oesophagus from further irritation.

⏳ One capsule daily can provide up to 24 hours of acid control.

Omeprazole Patient Information Leaflet

  • Omeprazole starts reducing stomach acid within a few hours, but full symptom relief may take a few days.
  • It is generally prescribed for short-term use, but in some cases, long-term treatment is necessary under medical supervision.
  • Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one—do not take a double dose.
  • Omeprazole can interact with certain drugs, including blood thinners, antifungal treatments, and some antibiotics. Always check with your doctor before combining medications.
  • There are no strict dietary restrictions, but reducing acidic, spicy, and fatty foods can help manage acid reflux symptoms.
