HOW OMEPRAZOLE AND SODIUM BICARBONATE POWDER FOR ORAL SUSPENSION WORKS FOR YOUR FREQUENT HEARTBURN
Omeprazole and Sodium Bicarbonate Powder for Oral Suspension works differently from other OTC heartburn products, such as antacids and other acid reducers. Omeprazole and Sodium Bicarbonate Powder for Oral Suspension stops acid production at the source – the acid pump that produces stomach acid. Omeprazole and Sodium Bicarbonate Powder for Oral Suspension is to be used once a day (every 24 hours), every day for 14 days.
