Omeprazole
303 reviewsReviews
I have had conflicting comments from various medics regarding the suitability of taking this drug over a long period of time.
Very helpful in dealing with acid reflux. Sleeping much better!
Used in conjunction with Diclofenac, to avoid stomached problems. Very effective.
I had ulcerative Colitis resulting in partial colectomy & I have atomach ulcer / heart burn.
I am also on Prednesolone.
I am on Losac twice a day
The advice from my GP to take it before going out when I knew the meal will be rich or might contain trigger foods made it even easier to manage avoiding the severe heartburn and reflux after such an event.
