Omeprazole
303 reviewsReviews
Marvellous tablet to stop heartburn and indigestion.
I used to have a problem swallowing my food, but since taking this I have been fine
I take this to reduce acid reflux which aggravates my asthma symptoms. It is easy to use, does the job and I have had no noticeable side effects.
Love meds that you don't realise work - until you don't take them! This is one.
I used this medicine to remedy GERD. It worked well and was prepared to take it for life, until I discovered that there is a link between taking this medicine and osteoporosis..
Even with a diminishing dose, it was hell to come off and caused lots of 'rebound' acid to be produced.
You've been warned.
