Description
Trade name:
Omez
Compound:
Each capsule contains:
Omeprazole 20 mg
Auxiliary components:
Sodium lauryl sulfate, disodium hydrogen orthophosphate, mannitol, sugar syrup, cetyl alcohol, titanium dioxide.
Properties:
H+-K+-ATPase inhibitor. Inhibits the activity of H+-K+-ATPase in the parietal cells of the stomach and thus blocks the final stage of hydrochloric acid secretion. This leads to a decrease in the level of basal and stimulated secretion, regardless of the nature of the irritant. Due to the decrease in acid secretion, it reduces or normalizes the effect of acid on the esophagus in patients with reflux esophagitis.
Omeprazole has a bactericidal effect on Helicobacter pylori. Eradication of H. pylori with the simultaneous use of omeprazole and antibiotics allows for rapid relief of disease symptoms, achieving a high degree of healing of damaged mucosa and stable long-term remission, and reducing the likelihood of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Indications:
Peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum in the acute phase (including those associated with Helicobacter pylori), reflux esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, erosive and ulcerative lesions of the stomach and duodenum associated with the use of NSAIDs.
Method of administration and dosage:
Take in the morning on an empty stomach 30 minutes before meals. The recommended dose of Omez for adults is 20-40 mg once a day for 4-8 weeks. The usual dose for children is 5-20 mg once a day.
Contraindications:
Chronic liver disease (including history), childhood, hypersensitivity to omeprazole.
Precautions:
Before starting therapy, it is necessary to exclude the possibility of a malignant process (especially in the case of a gastric ulcer), since treatment with omeprazole can mask the symptoms and delay the correct diagnosis.
When using omeprazole, the results of laboratory tests of liver function and plasma gastrin concentrations may be distorted.
