i have been taking omeprazole 20 mg for the last 5 weeks. i have noticed i have put on 5 pound and have not changed my diet, so was wondering if the medication was to blame?
 
Sorry this is late but I haven't been on in awhile and I know how it is to not get an answer. I would say "no" that your med is not causing a wt gain. Maybe you are feeling better and eating more? I lost over 50 lbs while on meRAB but I was very sick during this time with GERD/LPR.

no i have not been eating anymore, in fact a lot less. im usually very slim and i size 10, but since taking omoprozol i have put on half a stone, and im still gettin the burning in my tummy.
 
Maybe ask your doctor if you can switch to ranitidine - it does the same thing, but in a different way
 
thanku i will have a word. not nice putting on weight when not eating anymore than usual!!!:)
 
I've been on Nexium for almost a year now and I've gained 6lbs. I haven't changed my diet at all. I've gone from 118 to 125. I can't lose those 6 lbs either. I've tried without success.
