We are looking for an alternative with 1250 mg of Calcium Carbonate with some Vit D3, if available in England. ## Hello, Tironita! How are you and your wife? Unfortunately, I don't know what else is available for you in England. Have you tried asking a pharmacist/chemist?

The pharmacy has changed the manufacturer of my 20 mg Omeprazole from Sandoz to Dr.Reddy Labs. Know when I take my dosage I am getting a tremendous pain across my chest that lasts about an hour. HELP! ## Hello, Sturg! How are you? Are you making sure to take it with a full 8ounce glass of water, unless your on fluid restriction? A lot of times that happens due to dry swallowing pills.

Have you consulted your doctor? All chest pain should be evaluated, just in case. ## Thank's for response, Gerwon, I usually have it with 8 oz of OJ in morning with no prob.

I have taken omeprazole for 18 years. My system and blood tests all seem ok. My son says I should stop and take apple vinegar before each meal to save my liver. ## Hello, Joliver! How are you? Actually, having taken it for that long, the concern isn't your live, but the risks of hip fractures. PPIs are known to cause them with long-term use, as listed by the FDA. Other side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain. However, there is nothing that proves apple cider vinegar to work. Thus, the best thing to do would be to speak to your doctor about your concerns and see what they recommend. Is there anything else I can help with?

For about 3 years now I have been taking Omeprazole 20mg. 1x a day, made by Reddy's, and have been feeling fine. Recently our prescription provider through our insurance sent me my new prescription made by Sandoz maufacturers; they are white as opposed to the bluish/gray made by Reddy's. I don't think they are working the same, does that make sense? ## Hello, Martyz4! How are you? Sorry about the problem that you're having. Why have you been taking it for so long? Long-term use increases the risk of sudden hip fracture, which is why PPI's are usually only used for up to 4 months, at a time, then a break is taken. Learn more Omeprazole details here.
