Losec Omeprazole

For effective relief, you can take one Losec capsule daily before a meal. Remember not to crush or chew the capsule, but swallow it whole with water. It's important not to exceed the recommended dose. If you experience persistent symptoms or any unusual side effects, consult your healthcare provider. If your symptoms persist for more than 14 days, it's advisable to seek medical advice.

Each Losec capsule contains 20mg of Omeprazole as the active ingredient. The capsule also includes excipients such as hypromellose, disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, and other components necessary for the formulation. These additional ingredients play a role in the stability and effectiveness of the medication.

Common side effects of Losec may include headache, stomach pain, and nausea. However, if you experience severe side effects like severe diarrhoea, signs of a new infection, or an allergic reaction with symptoms such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or trouble breathing, seek immediate medical attention.

It's essential to avoid taking Losec if you are allergic to Omeprazole or any of the other ingredients. If you have certain medical conditions like liver problems or osteoporosis, consult your doctor before using Losec. Additionally, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18 years old, this medication may not be suitable for you. If you have any concerns regarding existing health conditions or medications, speak with your healthcare provider before starting Losec.
