Stop the painful burning sensation of frequent heartburn before it begins with Omeprazole Delayed Release Coated Tablets 20 mg, Cool Mint. Omeprazole is the #1 Active Ingredient for Frequent Heartburn. When used as directed for 14 days, Omeprazole prevents heartburn that is frequent in nature and provides long-lasting, 24-hour relief so you can enjoy every moment with family and friends. This heartburn medicine may take one to four days for full effect, although some people get complete relief of symptoms within 24 hours. Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs), like Omeprazole, work differently from antacid tablets and other acid reducer pills. These heartburn relief treatments only neutralize the stomach acid and provide shorter relief (less than 24 hours). Omeprazole stops acid production at the source, preventing the acid that causes heartburn symptoms for relief that lasts all day and night. This heartburn medicine is a 14-day course of treatment that should be taken once every 24 hours for 14 days to treat frequent heartburn flare-ups. For adults 18 years and older suffering from frequent heartburn that occurs two or more days a week.

FREQUENT HEARTBURN RELIEF

For frequent heartburn that occurs two or more days a week, take once every 24 hours for 14 days. This heartburn medicine is not intended for immediate relief of heartburn and may take one to four days for full effect.

Omeprazole is a PPI
A Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) can stop heartburn before it starts by shutting off the cells that “pump” acid into the stomach. Relief can last for 24 hours. PPIs are taken for 14 days.
H2s
H2 Blockers, “block” signals that tell your stomach to produce acid. Relief can start in as little as 30 minutes, but benefits may only last for 6-12 hours.
Antacids
Antacids can neutralize, but not reduce, the stomach acid that causes heartburn. Relief can be immediate, but it may only last for 1-3 hours.

PPIs are the #1 recommended type of OTC acid reducer
Food
Avoid heartburn-causing foods that are acidic, spicy, rich and fatty, as well as caffeinated beverages, alcohol and certain fruits and vegetables. These can trigger frequent heartburn episodes.
Lifestyle
Lifestyle factors, including smoking, stress and wearing tight fit clothes, can trigger uncomfortable heartburn symptoms.
Obesity
Weight gain that leads to being overweight or obesity may either cause or worsen heartburn. Talk to your doctor about lifestyle changes that may help you to lose weight and decrease frequent heartburn symptoms.
Activity
You may experience worsening or more frequent heartburn if you routinely eat late at night – just before going to sleep. Try to eat at least 2-3 hours before bedtime so your body has time to digest before you lie down. Also, elevating the head of your bed may provide additional relief.
