Answer #1

Ans) Omeprazole may help your stomach symptoms related to acid, but you could still have serious stomach problems. This medication may increase your risk of severe diarrhea. This diarrhea may be caused by an infection (Clostridium difficile) in your intestines.

- Proton-pump inhibitors such as Nexium and Prilosec reduce the amount of acid in your stomach, which tames your pain from gastroesophageal reflux disease. But there is still plenty left to help digest your food.
