Prilosec Uses
Omeprazole is used to treat various acid-related stomach
and/or throat (esophagus) problems (e.g., GERD, ulcers,
erosive esophagitis, or Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome). It
works by blocking the production of acid in the stomach.
When using Prilosec to treat certain ulcers, it
may be prescribed along with certain antibiotics (e.g.,
amoxicillin, clarithromycin).
How to Use Prilosec
Take Prilosec by mouth, usually once daily, 15 to
30 minutes before a meal; or as directed by your doctor.
The dosage and length of treatment is based on your medical
condition and response to therapy. Do not crush or chew
the medication. Swallow the medication whole. If you take
sucralfate in addition to Prilosec, take your dose
of omeprazole at least 30 minutes before your sucralfate.
