LT-Omeprazole

LT-Omeprazole DR Capsules 20mg

Uses

LT-Omeprazole is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux ulcers). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. This medication helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, helps prevent ulcers, and may prevent cancer of the esophagus.

LT-Omeprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors(PPls). It can be used as an over the counter drug in some packs for treatment of frequent heartburn (occurring 2 or more days a week). Since it may take 1 to 4 days to have full effect, these products may not relieve heartburn right away.
