DESCRIPTION:
Omeprazole belongs under a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors. Omeprazole blocks or inhibits gastric acid secretions. It reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the enzyme system of hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, which is regarded as the acid proton pump of the gastric parietal cells. Also called H+/K+ ATPase, the enzyme is responsible for the exchange of hydrogen and potassium ions during the formation of hydrochloric acid.
INDICATIONS:
It is used in conditions where inhibition of gastric acid secretion may be beneficial including aspiration syndromes, dyspepsia, erosive esophagitis, gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), benign gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, and hypersecretory conditions (e.g. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome).
