Effective Treatment for Heartburn, Acid Reflux & Indigestion

Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat symptoms of acid reflux, heartburn, indigestion, and gastric ulcers. It works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach, offering long-lasting relief from discomfort and helping prevent acid-related damage.

Available in 20mg strengths.

What Does Omeprazole Treat?

Omeprazole is effective for:

  • Acid reflux (GORD)
  • Heartburn
  • Indigestion (dyspepsia)
  • Stomach ulcers
  • Preventing ulcers caused by NSAIDs (e.g. ibuprofen)

It works by blocking the proton pumps in the stomach lining that produce acid, providing relief and allowing healing.

Who Is Omeprazole Suitable For?

  • Adults experiencing frequent or persistent heartburn
  • Those requiring long-term management of reflux or indigestion
  • Patients prescribed NSAIDs who need ulcer protection

Not suitable if you:

  • Are allergic to omeprazole or other PPIs
  • Have unexplained weight loss, vomiting or difficulty swallowing (seek medical advice first)
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding (consult your doctor)

How to Take Omeprazole

  • Take once daily, ideally 30–60 minutes before a meal
  • Swallow capsules whole with water
  • Dosage depends on the condition and severity (20mg)
  • Do not chew or crush capsules

Always follow prescriber instructions or the leaflet guidance.

Possible Side Effects

Most users tolerate omeprazole well. Possible side effects include:

  • Headache
  • Stomach pain or bloating
  • Nausea or diarrhoea
  • Dizziness or fatigue (uncommon)

Long-term use may affect vitamin B12 or magnesium levels — seek advice for extended treatment.
