OMISEC 20 MG CAP 14 S

Omeprazole contains the active substance omeprazole. It belongs to a group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors, which work by reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach.

Omeprazole is used to treat the following conditions in adults:

• Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD): This occurs when acid from the stomach escapes into the gullet (the tube that connects your throat to your stomach), causing pain, inflammation, and heartburn.
• Ulcers in the upper part of the intestine (duodenal ulcer) or stomach (gastric ulcer).
• Ulcers infected with bacteria called Helicobacter pylori: If you have this condition, your doctor may also prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection and allow the ulcer to heal.
• Ulcers caused by medicines called NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs): Omeprazole can also be used to prevent ulcers from forming if you are taking NSAIDs.
• Excess stomach acid caused by a growth in the pancreas (Zollinger-Ellison syndrome).
