Working Mechanism of Prilosec

Acid is produced in the stomach as a normal part of the digestive process. However, sometimes this acid can flow back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This is called gastro-oesophageal reflux, and can cause pain and a burning sensation known as heartburn.

Generic Prilosec reduces the production of stomach acid and therefore stops excess acid flowing back into the food pipe. Generic Prilosec can therefore be used to relieve heartburn symptoms associated with acid reflux.
