Omeprazole is a highly effective inhibitor of gastric acid secretion used in the therapy of stomach ulcers, dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease , gastroesophageal reflux disease and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The drug inhibits the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase (H(+)-K(+)-exchanging ATPase) in the proton pump of Gastric Parietal Cells. Omeprazole is one of the most widely prescribed drugs internationally and is available over the counter in some countries.

Chemical Properties & Specifications
Oral: Omeprazole is commonly administered in tablet and capsule forms, providing an easy and convenient way for patients to take the medication. Injectable: In severe cases, intravenous (IV) formulations of Omeprazole are available for rapid acid suppression in critical care settings.
Gastrointestinal Care: Omeprazole is used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, conditions involving excessive stomach acid production. Acid-related Disorders: It helps provide relief from heartburn and acid reflux, commonly associated with acid-related gastrointestinal conditions.
Ulcer Prevention: Omeprazole is prescribed as a prophylactic treatment to prevent gastric ulcers in patients taking NSAIDs or undergoing long-term steroid therapy, both of which increase the risk of ulcers.
Pediatric Applications: Special formulations of Omeprazole are available for pediatric use to treat acid-related disorders in children, ensuring safe and effective dosage for younger patients.
