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