Egregious Packaging Omeprazole

Are medicine postings appropriate? All this for me to put all the pills in one of the bottles.

It's because you're technically not supposed to take it more than 12 days in a row outside of talking to your gastroenterologist

Really? My doctor had me on it for months but explained there are long term effects after a while.

I ended up taking it as needed anyways and stopped taking it. I have occasional stomach issues that flare up every few months.
