A member asked:
Do i really need to take omeprazole & famotadine, my last upper gi showed no signs of acid reflux.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: These medicines are for reflux and ulcers but they are mainly to decrease the acid production. Why both, would be a question your doctor should be the one to answer.
