Eligibility is determined by a licensed provider
Dosage and frequency are individualized
Steady acid suppression, taken once a day.
Omeprazole is an oral capsule, prescription medication that is FDA approved to treat conditions with excess stomach acid, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It belongs to a group of drugs called proton-pump inhibitors, which reduce the amount of acid made in the stomach.
Taken daily, omeprazole relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough, without the need to time doses the way antacids and most over-the-counter treatments require.
