I have used Omeprazole since surgery (March 2015). I have since had my followup with my PCP and he wrote me a prescription for it (it ends up being cheaper than buying it over the counter).

I've been on omeprazole since my surgery as well.

Prevacid (lansoprazole) or Prilosec (Omeprazole) both work wonders for my son. These drugs turned my boy from a miserable baby from the reflux to a "happy spitter". He still had reflux, but it no longer hurt.

We had tried other reflux medications (Zantac, Pepcid, etc) before he started these, but none worked.

PPI's tend to have an indication for the treatment of reflux, where H2 blockers (Zantac, Pepcid) do not.

Be careful of long term continued use of PPIs like Omeprazole/Prilosec, recent studies link them to bone density loss.

If the risk of an ulcer or other ailments is greater, then the long usage or maintenance use of this is probably better.

That is a case by case call that someone's PCP or surgeon can make.

I was on prilosec for years prior to surgery. my surgeon took me off it about a month ago, no problems.
