Only one tablet.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I appreciate that you do not drink alcohol.
Yes, you have to take only one tablet 30 mins before breakfast with empty stomach for 3-4 weeks.
Omeprazole is available over the counter. However I forbid you from taking it more than couple of weeks. If you feel there is a need to continue it for more than 2 weeks, you should consult a doctor.
