Uses of Omicap Capsule
- Acidity
- Acid reflux
- Stomach ulcer
- Heartburn
Benefits of Omicap Capsule
- In Acidity
- Omicap switches off the pumps in the stomach lining that make acid, so there is far less acid to cause burning and discomfort.
- In Acid reflux
- Omicap reduces the acid that rises into the food pipe, relieving heartburn and giving an inflamed food pipe time to heal.
- In Stomach ulcer
- Omicap lowers stomach acid enough for an ulcer to heal and, with antibiotics when needed, helps clear the infection behind it.
- In Heartburn
- Omicap prevents the burning behind the breastbone that comes after meals or at night, so you can eat and sleep comfortably.
How Omicap Capsule works
Omeprazole switches off the acid pumps in the lining of your stomach, so much less acid is produced and the lining can heal.
How to take Omicap Capsule
Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush or break it unless your doctor has told you to. Take it on an empty stomach, 30 to 60 minutes before the first meal. Taking it at about the same time each day helps you remember. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine may cause confusion, blurred vision, sweating and a fast heartbeat. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Side effects of Omicap Capsule
Most side effects of Omicap are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
- Headache
- Loose motions
- Nausea
- Stomach pain
- Flatulence
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions
Take it on an empty stomach, about half an hour to an hour before your first meal — this is when the acid pumps are most active and the medicine works best. Long-term use has been linked to low magnesium and low vitamin B12, and to a higher risk of bone fracture. Review the need with your doctor rather than continuing indefinitely. Tell your doctor if acidity comes with difficulty swallowing, vomiting, weight loss, or black stools — these need investigation, not a longer course. Do not stop a long course abruptly; acid can rebound. Your doctor will taper it.
Do not take Omicap if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack.
Interactions with other medicines
Reduces the absorption of some antifungals, iron and certain HIV medicines. Tell your doctor if you take clopidogrel, methotrexate or a blood thinner.
