A member asked:

When should i take the omeprazole before i take the 2 antibiotics or after? or it doesn't matter as long as i take it everyday? h pylori

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Medication timing: Omeprazole (and other proton pump inhibitors) should be taken thirty minutes before your largest meal each day. Ideally, they should be taken the same time each day.
