Dear Martin,

I now take Omeprazole 40mg 1 each day for my heartburn. Due to coronavirus I can't go back and only have 25 pills left. Which product equivalent to Omeprazole 40mg is available here.

68 years

Regards,

W.

Dear W,

Under many names: Omeprazole GPO, Desec, Dosate, Duogas, Eucid, Gaster, Gomec, Mepracid, Miracid, Nocid and Ocid.
The GPO is the cheapest, but not widely available. It is best to take it before breakfast.

Sincerely,

Dr. Maarten
