A member asked:
Need to know if my husband can take omeprazole after he got a stent in his heart last year and only on asprin?

Yes he can: There's some interaction between Omeprazole and Plavix (clopidogrel) but not an issue for your husband.

Yes, BUT ...: The reason for the "qualified" yes full of caveats is that the symptoms you both are attributing to acid reflux or gerd could also be a serious and life-threatening re-presentation of his cardiac disease. Given that he falls into the category of "known disease" (has a stent), you need to be extra careful that this deathly mimic is not really recurrence. I don't often say this, but he needs an er.
