Omeprazole

Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that is commonly used to treat conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It works by reducing the production of stomach acid, which can help relieve symptoms such as heartburn, regurgitation, and indigestion. Omeprazole is available both by prescription and over-the-counter in various forms such as capsules, tablets, and oral suspension.
