Getzome 20mg Capsules – Omeprazole 20mg, 14 Capsules

Getzome 20mg capsules are used to treat a number of conditions caused by excess stomach acid. These include heartburn, acid reflux, and gastric ulcers. Getzome works by reducing the amount of acid produced by the stomach, which relieves the symptoms of these conditions. Getzome capsules are available in two strengths: 20mg and 40mg. The 20mg capsules are used to treat milder conditions, while the 40mg capsules are used to treat more severe conditions. Getzome capsules should be taken with a glass of water. They can be taken with or without food, but should be taken at the same time each day. The capsules should be swallowed whole and not crushed or chewed. Getzome capsules are usually

Getzome is used to treat the following conditions:

In adults:

  • ‘Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease’ (GORD). This is where acid from the stomach escapes into the gullet (the tube which connects your throat to your stomach) causing pain, inflammation and heartburn.
  • Ulcers in the upper part of the intestine (duodenal ulcer) or stomach (gastric ulcer).
  • Ulcers which are infected with bacteria called ‘Helicobacter pylori’. If you have this condition, your doctor may also prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection and allow the ulcer to heal.
  • Ulcers caused by medicines called NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs).

Getzome can also be used to stop ulcers from forming if you are taking NSAIDs.

  • Too much acid in the stomach caused by a growth in the pancreas (Zollinger-Ellison syndrome).
