Losec Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets – 7 Pack are designed for the short-term treatment of acid reflux symptoms, including heartburn and acid regurgitation, in adults aged 18 years and over.
Containing omeprazole 20mg, Losec Control belongs to a group of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). These medicines work by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach, helping relieve the uncomfortable symptoms associated with acid reflux.
Heartburn can cause a burning sensation in the chest, while acid regurgitation may leave an unpleasant sour or acidic taste in the mouth. These symptoms can occur after eating, when bending over or while lying down.
Losec Control Gastro-Resistant Tablets work by targeting stomach acid production rather than simply neutralising acid already present.
The convenient 7-tablet pack provides a practical option for adults seeking a short course of treatment for reflux symptoms.
Important: Losec Control is not intended for immediate heartburn relief. It may take 2–3 consecutive days of treatment before symptoms improve.
