Will taking Pepcid and/or omeprazole twice a day heal a stomach ulcer without further medical intervention? I have had a duodenal ulcer in the past, and, if memory serves me, this was the treatment my doctor used.

The fastest way to cure a stomach ulcer is to identify and treat the cause. Most stomach ulcers are caused by an infection and will require antibiotics, along with other medications. The sooner you start antibiotics and other treatments, the sooner your ulcer will heal.
