Omeprazole
Omeprazole, sold under the brand name Prilosec among others, is a medication used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger–Ellison syndrome.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.drugs.com/monograph/omeprazole.html )〕 It is also used to prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding in people who are at high risk.〔 It is taken by mouth.〔
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headaches, and increased intestinal gas. Serious side effects may include ''Clostridium difficile'' colitis, an increased risk of pneumonia, an increased risk of bone fractures, and the potential of masking stomach cancer. It is unclear if it is safe for use in pregnancy. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor and as such blocks the release of stomach acid.〔
Omeprazole was discovered in 1979. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic health system. It is available as a generic medication.〔 The wholesale cost as of 2014 is 0.01 to 0.07 USD per dose.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://erc.msh.org/dmpguide/resultsdetail.cfm?language=english&code=OME20T&s_year=2014&year=2014&str=20%20mg&desc=Omeprazole&pack=new&frm=TAB-CAP&rte=PO&class_code2=17%2E1%2E&supplement=&class_name=%2817%2E1%2E%29Antiulcer%20medicines%3Cbr%3E )〕 In the United States it costs about 1.00 USD per pill.〔
