General Actions (Not specific medical benefits for the user)
| Core Action | Mechanism |
| Blocks Acid Production | Omeprazole works by irreversible binding to the $H^{+}\text{/K}^{+}\text{-ATPase}$ (Proton Pump) enzyme system located on the surface of parietal cells in the stomach, effectively blocking the final step of acid secretion. |
| Provides Long-Lasting Relief | Due to its mechanism, it provides a powerful and sustained reduction in gastric acid output over 24 hours, promoting the healing of acid-related damage. |
| Heals Esophagitis | By minimizing acid reflux exposure, it allows the damaged lining of the esophagus (esophagitis) to heal and prevents future damage. |
| Treats Ulcers | The reduction in acid secretion creates an environment favorable for the healing of gastric and duodenal ulcers, often used alongside antibiotics to treat H. pylori infections. |
