Omeprazole is used in the treatment and prevention of stomach (gastric) and intestinal ulcers.
Omeprazole promotes ulcer healing in animals with ulcers or erosions (shallow depressions in the stomach lining).
Omeprazole may be useful in treatment of ulcers caused by ulcerogenic drugs (such as aspirin).
Another use is management of acid reflux disease to reduce injury to the esophagus (food tube) caused by the upward movement of stomach acid.
Adverse reactions to omeprazole are uncommon as long as recommended doses are administered. Occasionally, some animals develop nausea, vomiting, flatulence, diarrhea or loose stools. Very rarely, omeprazole has precipitated some urinary tract infections and nervous system changes.
