Description and Usage:

Zoltar (Omeprazole) 20mg capsules belong to a class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). They are prescribed for the treatment of various conditions related to excess stomach acid production, including:

• Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): to relieve symptoms such as heartburn, acid regurgitation, and difficulty swallowing.
• Gastric ulcers: to promote healing and prevent recurrence.
• Duodenal ulcers: to promote healing and prevent recurrence.
• Erosive esophagitis: to promote healing and relieve associated symptoms.

Omeprazole works by irreversibly inhibiting the proton pump in the gastric parietal cells, thereby reducing the secretion of gastric acid into the stomach. This helps to alleviate symptoms associated with conditions caused by excess stomach acid and promotes healing of ulcers and erosive esophagitis.
