It depends on you. Some people need to, some don't. If it's okay with your doc, try weaning off it. Remember that you'll get "rebound" symptoms of increased heartburn as your own stomach acid starts working again. This can fool you into thinking you need the drug. A good way to taper might be skipping a dose or skipping a day. That has worked for me.
What is Omeprazole?
Prilosec...a stomach med to keep you from getting ulcers from our loving drugs...I take Nexuim and Zantac.
Want to see a miracle? Plant a word of love heartdeep in a person's life. Nuture it with a smile and a prayer and watch what happens...Never underestimate the power of the seed!

Ahhh.. Yes, they put me on Nexium each time I am hospitalized. But I haven't been on anything like that since I have been home. Should I maybe ask for a prescription?
Ok thanks guys, will ask my experts at Adds when i am there at the end of May.
I've had sensations in my stomach the last week or so, thinking it's probably a stomach bug, but just thought i should rule out the Omeprazole.
