Omeprazole enteric-coated capsules can treat gastric bleeding. Gastric bleeding is primarily caused by injury due to gastric ulcers or corrosive gastritis. Omeprazole enteric-coated capsules mainly work by inhibiting gastric acid secretion and protecting the gastric mucosa. In daily life, pay close attention to diet: eat smaller, more frequent meals; chew food thoroughly and eat slowly; avoid spicy and irritating foods. Additionally, consult a hospital for gastroscopy and fecal occult blood testing.
