Prilosec / Losec (generic name: omeprazole) is a medication that helps reduce acid production in the digestive system. It is commonly used to treat conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger–Ellison syndrome. Omeprazole falls under the therapeutic class of Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).

Prilosec is an over-the-counter medication and does not require a prescription.

Dosage

Always follow the provided instructions when using the medicine. If you are unsure about the dosage or administration, consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist.

For adults aged 18 and above, the typical dosage is one capsule daily with a meal for 14 days. Without medical instruction, avoid exceeding the recommended dose or taking more than one 14-day course every four months.

If the condition does not improve after 14 days or symptoms persist or worsen, contact a doctor. Take the medication before a meal, preferably in the morning. Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not chew or crush the capsule or its contents. The capsule is designed with coated pellets that protect the medicine from being broken down by stomach acid.

For patients who have difficulty swallowing, the capsules can be opened, and the contents swallowed directly. Alternatively, the capsule contents can be mixed with a slightly acidic drink like orange juice or yogurt and consumed within 30 minutes.

Storage

Keep this medicine in a dry location below 77°F/25°C, stored in its original packaging to shield it from light. Seal the bottle securely after each use. Once the bottle is opened, the medication remains usable for up to three months, but this period should not extend past the medicine’s expiration date. Read our tips on handling medicine safely.

FAQ

 

This text is for informational purposes only. Please consult a doctor or pharmacist before using any medication. 

Read the information leaflet that comes with the medication.

If after taking Prilosec, a sudden allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) occurs, with symptoms like swelling of the face, tongue, or throat making it difficult to breathe or swallow, or there is wheezing, hives, rash, blistering, or peeling of the skin, call a doctor or 911 right away, or go to an emergency room immediately.

Most people who use Prilosec do not experience any negative side effects. Some of the side effects that have been reported include headaches, stomach issues, nausea, and vomiting.

Not all side effects are listed here. If these or other unlisted symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): Causes symptoms like heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing. To diagnose GERD, a healthcare provider will review symptoms and may recommend tests such as endoscopy, pH monitoring, esophageal manometry, or X-rays.

Peptic ulcer disease (PUD): Symptoms include burning stomach pain, bloating, heartburn, and nausea, which often worsen on an empty stomach. A healthcare provider may diagnose PUD using endoscopy, upper gastrointestinal series (barium swallow), or a test for Helicobacter pylori infection.

Zollinger–Ellison Syndrome: Zollinger–Ellison syndrome (ZES) symptoms include severe, recurrent peptic ulcers, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. To diagnose ZES, a healthcare provider may conduct blood tests to measure gastrin levels, endoscopy, imaging studies, and secretin stimulation tests.

  • Can omeprazole affect the absorption of other medications?
    Yes, omeprazole can interfere with the absorption of certain medications due to its effect on stomach acidity. Please talk to a pharmacist or healthcare provider to ensure prescribed medication is not affected by Prilosec.
  • Is it safe to take omeprazole long-term?
    Long-term use of omeprazole may be associated with risks, such as vitamin B12 and magnesium deficiency, bone fractures, and increased susceptibility to gastrointestinal infections. It's important to discuss these risks with your healthcare provider.
  • Does taking omeprazole mean I don’t have to change my dietary habits?
    Certain foods and beverages, such as alcohol, caffeine, and spicy or fatty foods, can still irritate the stomach lining even while taking omeprazole, so it is important to follow a healthcare provider's diet instructions.
