Overview

Sandoz Probitor 20mg Capsule is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Omeprazole 20mg. It is supplied as a capsule and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Sandoz Probitor 20mg Capsule is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Sandoz Probitor 20mg Capsule about 30-60 minutes before a meal, preferably in the morning. Swallow the capsule whole with water – do not chew, crush or open it, as it is designed to protect the medicine from stomach acid until it reaches the small intestine. Complete the full course as advised by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve earlier.

Dosage

The usual dose of Sandoz Probitor 20mg Capsule is 20mg once daily, which your doctor may adjust up to 40mg daily depending on the condition being treated and your response, with treatment duration ranging from a few weeks to several months. Your doctor will individualise the dose and duration based on your diagnosis.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
