Omezol Injection I.V 40mg/10ml contains Omeprazole 40mg, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce excessive stomach acid production. It is commonly used in hospitals for patients who cannot take oral medications or require rapid acid control.

It helps in treating acid-related conditions such as GERD (acid reflux), peptic ulcers, gastritis, and stress-related ulcers by reducing acid secretion and promoting healing of the stomach lining.

How It Works

Omeprazole blocks the proton pumps in the stomach lining that produce acid. By inhibiting these pumps, it significantly reduces acid secretion, allowing ulcers and inflammation to heal and preventing further damage.
