Omeprazole proton pump inhibitor (Prilosec)

Omeprazole (Prilosec) (Proton Pump Inhibitor) reduces stomach acid and treats acid reflux, stomach ulcers, and gastritis. It is given as a daily oral pill and can be temporary or long-term, depending on the condition. While the human version is over-the-counter, veterinarians provide prescription-strength dosages for dogs. Some holistic vets prefer short-term use alongside diet changes and gut-supportive supplements.
