Omeprazole Forums (Page 11)

Can anybody tell me what anti-emetic (anti-nausea) medication(s) have worked best for them? And please be sure it's not in a suppository form. Oral (tablets) would be preferred. I'm even open to natural remedies along these lines. I've tried peppermint oil and it helps, but I would really love something completely effective. At one time I was prescribed Omeprazole (APO generic) but I don't feel like it worked well for me. ## Well, to start with you might consider Emetrol - When I was taking flight lessons that was the only thing the FAA would allow anybody to take for motion sickness. It is technically just a sugar compound so there are no "drugs" in it. I know nausea may or may not be caused by motion sickness and that there could be other root causes, so if it ...

what is the difference between omeprazole & Rabeprazole ## I found an article that compares these two drugs in a case study. From what I was able to gather, both of these drugs are pretty much equal in all aspects including any possible side effects and their long term effectiveness.

Hi ,I have Gerd, gastritis, a hiatus hernia and heartburn. I have been taking Omeprazole 40 mg for over a month and I do not feel any better. Is that normal? How long before this medication starts taking effect? Please help. ## Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that is used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, to treat or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis. It will not, however, do anything for a hernia. As to how long before it helps, there is actually no way to say whether or not any medication will be effective for any certain person. But, this medication usually does need to be taken for 8 to 16 weeks, depending on the severity of your condition, to actually help these conditions to heal. If you are still experiencing some symptoms...

how often do you take them and how many pills per day? ## Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, to treat or prevent conditions such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis. And the dosage really depends on the condition being treated and its severity. For mild conditions, such as heartburn, a doctor will usually advise one daily, just before a meal. However, for more severe conditions, a person may require a higher dosage and a doctor will sometimes split it up into 2 daily doses. What has your doctor advised? ## Actually i am having omepraz d capsules for stomach pain i would ask you is there any other substitute for this

What could happen if you overdose on omeprazole 20mg cap sandoz? ## Hi Megan, The reaction of an overdose of this would essentially depend upon several factors; including but not limited to how much of the drug was taken and whether it was taken with any other medicines, alcohol, or street drugs, medical history, how the normal dose effects the patient, etc. But one could expect to notice any of the normal side effects to a greater extent such as: headache, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, trouble awakening and sleep deprivation, possible iron and vitamin B12 deficiency (which could lead to other problems), blurred vision, sweating and flushing, dry mouth, rapid heart rate, and confusion. This probably isn't a full list of possibilities as that would be dependent of a ho...
