It treats heartburn and other symptoms associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), as well as stomach and duodenal ulcers, H. pylori (used with antibiotics), Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, and other conditions that cause your stomach to produce too much acid. The medicine belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which reduce the amount of acid in your stomach. While some people may report a reduction of gas and bloating while taking omeprazole for conditions like GERD, other medications are more effective in treating most episodes of intestinal gas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"omeprazole-for-gas-and-bloating-what-the-experts-say\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Omeprazole for gas and bloating: What the experts say<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bonzahealth.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sarah Bonza<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, MD, a board-certified family physician at Bonza Health, doesn\u2019t recommend omeprazole for gas and bloating. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt is only for acid-related gastrointestinal conditions,\u201d Dr. Bonza says. Bloating and belching may be <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uchicagomedicine.org\/conditions-services\/esophageal-diseases\/gastroesophageal-reflux-disease\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">symptoms of GERD<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so some people may feel relief from taking omeprazole.

According to Dr. Bonza, before going the medication route, there are lifestyle changes and dieting habits you can adopt to relieve gas and bloating. \u201cIt&#8217;s recommended to avoid gas-producing ingredients such as carbonated beverages and beans and also to stay away from possible food intolerances (e.g., dairy, milk, etc.),\u201d she explains. \u201cIt&#8217;s also recommended to have regular physical activity, eat small and frequent meals, and not lie down right away after eating in order to help decrease the build-up of gas.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Iroanya recommends the following medications and supplements as alternatives to omeprazole:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Simethicone (Gas-X, etc.): <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simethicone targets gas bubbles directly, making it more effective than omeprazole, which is designed to reduce stomach acid.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lactase supplements: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If lactose intolerance is causing gas and bloating, lactase supplements can break down lactose (the sugar in milk and milk products)\u2014often the root cause of flatulence and bloating. Dr. Iroanya says lactase supplements may be more effective than omeprazole, which doesn\u2019t target the underlying issue of lactose intolerance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Probiotics:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These work by restoring healthy gut bacteria, which can reduce gas and bloating. \u201cUnlike probiotics, omeprazole may interfere with the restoration of gut bacteria, limiting its ability to reduce gas buildup,\u201d Dr. Iroanya says.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please note that these suggestions are only for mild gas and bloating. \u201cIf you have severe abdominal pain, abdominal distention, or increasing abdominal girth, you may already need to go to acute care or the emergency room,\u201d Dr. Bonza says.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before switching any medications or taking any supplements, speak with your healthcare provider for medical advice on the best treatment options to address gas and bloating.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"bottom-line\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bottom line<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While omeprazole may indirectly reduce symptoms of gas and bloating from GERD, medical experts don\u2019t recommend it as a first-line treatment for gas if you don\u2019t also have GERD. In fact, for some people, gas can be a side effect of taking omeprazole. If you\u2019re experiencing significant discomfort from flatulence and bloating, notify your healthcare provider of your symptoms so they can work with you to find the best treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omeprazole is a generic medication that\u2019s available over the counter and with a prescription (for higher doses) that\u2019s available as brand-name Prilosec and Prilosec OTC.
