Omega Rapid (20/1680Mg) 10 Sachets

Description

Omega Rapid 20/1680mg Sachets contain Omeprazole + Sodium Bicarbonate and are made by Ferozsons Laboratories. Sodium bicarbonate protects omeprazole from stomach acid so it is absorbed quickly, giving faster relief. Omeprazole then blocks acid production in the stomach lining. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
