    LA Gomez
    Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used to treat ulcers by inhibiting gastric acid secretion. It works by binding to the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase enzyme in gastric parietal cells. Common adverse effects include headaches, abdominal pain, and nausea. Nursing responsibilities include monitoring for signs of low magnesium and instructing patients to take the drug properly and report any side effects.
