Teva Omeprazole 40mg Capsule x28

Teva Omeprazole 40mg Capsule is a gastro-resistant proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production. This medication treats gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and other acid-related conditions by blocking acid-producing enzymes in the stomach. Uses Teva Omeprazole treats GERD, peptic ulcers, erosive esophagitis, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It’s used for healing and preventing stomach ulcers caused by NSAIDs or H. pylori bacteria. The medication also helps prevent stress ulcers in critically ill patients. Benefits Provides long-lasting acid suppression for 24 hours Heals erosive esophagitis and peptic ulcers effectively Reduces heartburn and acid reflux symptoms Prevents NSAID-induced gastric ulcers Supports H. pylori eradication therapy Improves quality of life in GERD patients Reduces risk of upper GI bleeding Allows damaged tissue to heal properly Prevents recurrence of acid-related conditions Allows damaged stomach lining to heal How It Works Teva Omeprazole irreversibly blocks the hydrogen-potassium ATPase enzyme (proton pump) in gastric parietal cells. This action significantly reduces gastric acid secretion regardless of stimulus. The medication requires acid activation and accumulates in acidic compartments, providing sustained acid suppression. Dosage Condition Standard Dosage Maximum Daily Dosage GERD/Ulcers 20-40mg once daily 80mg daily Severe Cases 40mg once daily 80mg daily Take Teva Omeprazole 30-60 minutes before meals, preferably in the morning.

Acid suppression lasts approximately 24 hours per dose. Full therapeutic benefits may take 4-8 weeks for ulcer healing and symptom resolution. Side Effects Common side effects include headache, nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, and flatulence. Some patients experience dizziness or fatigue.

Warning Long-term use may increase risk of bone fractures, especially in elderly patients. Prolonged therapy can lead to vitamin B12 deficiency and hypomagnesemia. May mask symptoms of gastric cancer. Discontinue gradually to avoid rebound acid hypersecretion. Seek medical attention for severe diarrhea or allergic reactions.
