Description of Ominem Capsule 20mg
Ominem 20mg Capsule belongs to a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) that help treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (a condition caused by excessive stomach acid production). It contains omeprazole, which works by blocking the gastric proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) in the stomach wall, thereby reducing acid secretion and preventing damage to the stomach lining. This medicine provides relief from heartburn, acid reflux, and esophagitis. It should be taken as prescribed by the doctor, preferably before meals for maximum effectiveness.
