It is a specific inhibitor of the acid pump in the Parietal cell. It is rapidly acting and provides control through reversible inhibition of gastric acid secretion with once daily dosing.Omeprazole is a weak base and is concentrated and converted to the active form in the highly acidic environment of the intracellularcanaliculi within the parietal cell, where it inhibits the enzyme H+ K+-ATPase.
