What is Losec?
Losec can help decrease the amount of stomach acid being produced in the body. The active ingredient omeprazole belongs to a class of medications called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The medication can help relieve symptoms such as persistent coughing, difficulty swallowing and heartburn caused by Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other conditions caused by excess stomach acid. It can also be used to treat ulcers and promoting healing of the stomach and intestines.

How is Losec used?
Losec should be taken orally as directed by a doctor, usually 1 to 2 times per day. The medication should be taken with a full glass of water 1 hour prior to the same meal each day. Contact a doctor for the correct length of treatment and dosage as it will depend on the patient’s condition and their response to the therapy. The capsules should be swallowed whole and not crushed, chewed, broken or split before consuming.
