Omeprazole Injection

About Omeprazole Injection

Omeprazole injection is a medication used to treat conditions where the stomach produces excessive acid. It is commonly prescribed for the short-term management of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a disorder causing excessive stomach acid. The injection works by inhibiting the proton pumps in the stomach lining, reducing acid production. It is often used in patients who cannot take oral medication or require fast-acting treatment. Omeprazole injection is also used in combination with antibiotics for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, which contributes to ulcers. It™s typically administered in a hospital setting under medical supervision.
