I have a cronic cough for the last 2 years. I recently was dignosed with 2 ulcers through the lining of my vocal cord. I still cough but not as much however I seem to be more forgetful. I am not sure if that is related to this medication.

I have been dealing with GERD for 8 years and this finally hepls. I have my good days and my bad but overall this has helped. My only problem is how much it costs. I dont have health insurance and I was told that it is very expensive. I sure hope I can afford it.

Absolute Disaster. Did not work at all....I have taken Omeprazole made by Mylan, and it worked. This was like taking candy. It had absolutely no effect at all.

I have taken the medication for 2 years and it did relieve the constant sour stomach I had. My throat is not irritated and burning anymore either. It does increase some gas and burping sometimes but that is better than the alternative.I have had some constipation( not eliminating completely) and dizziness. My doctor suggested taking omeprazole once daily instead of twice and it helped with dizzin ...
