Hello, C Duran! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you've been having.

You should have this checked out, because that could be a symptom of acid reflux, it might not be due to the medication.

The FDA lists Omeprazole as being a PPI, which is most commonly used to treat or prevent GERD, ulcers, heartburn and gastritis. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain.

Are you also watching what you eat and drink to help the medication work better? Such as avoiding spicy foods, alcohol and caffeine?
