Omeprazole, For Clinical, Hospital Etc.

Omeprazole Injection 20 40 mg is a proton pump inhibitor used in the treatment of dyspepsia,peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and Zollinger -Ellison syndrome. Omeprazole is a selective and irreversible proton pump inhibitor. It suppresses stomach acid secretion by specific inhibition of the H +K + ATPase system found at the secretory surface of gastric parietal cells. Because this enzyme system is regarded as the acid (proton, or H+) pump within the gastric mucosa, omeprazole inhibits the final step of acid production.Omeprazole also inhibits both basal and stimulated acid secretion irrespective of the stimulus.
