CompositionOmefol Capsule is used to treat and manage acid-related conditions such as acid reflux (gastro-oesophageal reflux disease or GORD), heartburn, and stomach or intestinal ulcers. It helps reduce stomach acid production to relieve burning pain and support healing of the digestive lining.
It contains omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor. Take this capsule as prescribed, preferably before a meal in the morning, and swallow it whole with water without chewing or crushing. Continue taking it for the full duration recommended by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve quickly.
Making certain lifestyle modifications can support your recovery and prevent acid reflux symptoms. These include avoiding spicy, fatty, or acidic foods, eating smaller meals, maintaining an upright posture after eating, and managing body weight.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have liver disease, bone problems, or are taking other prescription medicines. Long-term use may require monitoring of magnesium and vitamin B12 levels. Tell your healthcare team if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
