Can Omepp be used in cardiac patients?
Patients with cardiac disease can take Omepp as prescribed by the doctor. However, Omepp can interact with certain drugs (e.g clopidogrel, digoxin) which might be used by a patient with an underlying cardiac disease. Patients taking Omepp and digoxin may need to be monitored for digoxin toxicity. Omepp decreases the activation of clopidogrel, thus reducing its effects. Patients taking these medicines together need to be monitored closely by a doctor.
