Description
Leader 24 Hour Omeprazole Delayed Release Acid Reducer Tablets offer extended heartburn relief with the same active ingredient as Prilosec OTC. This 42-tablet supply provides three complete 14-day treatment courses for managing frequent heartburn occurring two or more days per week. Each tablet contains 20mg of omeprazole in a delayed-release formulation that protects the active ingredient from stomach acid, ensuring optimal absorption in the small intestine. As a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), omeprazole works by blocking the final step of acid production in stomach cells, providing more comprehensive and longer-lasting relief than antacids or H2 receptor blockers. Leader Brand maintains pharmaceutical standards while offering significant cost savings compared to national brands. The enteric-coated tablets are designed for easy swallowing and begin working from the first dose, with maximum effectiveness typically achieved within 1-4 days of consistent use. This larger quantity package is ideal for individuals who experience chronic heartburn and need regular treatment cycles, providing both convenience and value for long-term acid reflux management.
