Omeprazole 20 mg Capsule contains omeprazole (20 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Proton Pump Inhibition: Omeprazole works by irreversibly blocking an enzyme system known as the hydrogen/potassium adenosine triphosphatase, or H+/K+ ATPase (the 'proton pump'), which is found in cells lining your stomach.
• Reduction of Stomach Acid: The proton pump plays a critical role in producing stomach acid. By blocking this pump's action, omeprazole effectively reduces the amount of acid produced in your stomach.

• Store Omeprazole 20 mg Capsule in a tightly sealed container.
• Keep the medicine at room temperature.
• Protect the capsule from light and moisture.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.
• Make sure to use the product before its expiry date.

• If you're taking Omeprazole 20 mg Capsule for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), try to limit your intake of spicy and fatty foods. These can increase stomach acid production, worsening your symptoms.
• For those managing peptic ulcer disease, consider a diet high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. These foods can help protect your stomach lining, supporting the actions of Omeprazole 20 mg Capsule.
