Hello,

What to avoid
Omeprazole can cause diarrhea, which may be a sign of a new infection. If you have diarrhea that is watery or bloody, call your doctor before using anti-diarrhea medicine.

Stop using this medicine and call your doctor at once if you have:

severe stomach pain, diarrhea that is watery or bloody;

Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:

Less common
Body aches or pain
diarrhea or loose stools
difficulty with breathing
dizziness
ear congestion
gas
heartburn
loss of voice

sneezing
unusual drowsiness

Do contact your Dr. asap.
