Hi, what is considered long term or extended use? My doctor prescribed me omreprozole for 8 weeks. Im wondering if rhats considered extended use. Should I be worried about a rebound at the end of the 8 weeks?
It all depends on indications. In some cases it could be taken for years, because pros outweigh the cons. In some other cases, 3-6 weeks is the duration of treatment. Check with your doctor as to indications and the need to continue. Good Luck!

Additionally in case this message reaches you, I'm on 20mg once a day.
Thanks
