OMEPRAZOLE
also sold as omeprazole
Drug interactions
As written in the label. These are the interactions the manufacturer lists — this is not a check of any two medicines you happen to be taking.
This label has no interaction table.
Most-reported side effects
Counts of spontaneous reports to the FDA's FAERS system in which OMEPRAZOLE was named. These are not complication rates. A report is not a confirmed event, and a widely used drug produces more reports simply by being used more. Use this to see what gets reported, never to compare one drug against another.
Shortages
Current shortages on file with the FDA.

Retrieved about 11 hours ago from openFDA, the FDA's public API for drug labelling. Data is US government work and in the public domain.
This is a US label. openFDA indexes FDA-approved labelling, so this is the US-approved text and not the label of the product you may be holding in Nepal. The same substance can carry different warnings in different countries, and a medicine common here may have no US label at all.
Not medical advice. This is reference text, not a consultation. Never start, stop or change a medicine because of something you read here. If you are taking more than one medicine, or you are pregnant, or you have a liver, kidney or heart condition, ask a pharmacist or your prescriber — they can weigh your actual combination, which this page cannot.
