Pharmacist Advice
Take HELEZOL 40mg exactly as prescribed. It is generally taken before a meal, and the capsule should be swallowed whole with water unless your doctor or pharmacist gives different instructions.
Do not exceed the recommended dose or use it for prolonged periods without medical supervision. Long-term PPI therapy may require medical monitoring.
Tell your doctor about all medicines you take, particularly medicines such as warfarin, phenytoin, digoxin, methotrexate or certain antifungal medicines, as omeprazole can interact with some medicines.
If you have persistent heartburn, unexplained weight loss, difficulty swallowing, vomiting blood or black stools, seek medical evaluation promptly.
