How Can Acid Reflux Be Treated?
I m on omeprazole 20 mg capsules for acid reflux and took one this morning at 830 am, 30 minutes before food. I didn t wait the full hour. And just a couple hours ago tonight I started feeling acid reflux again so I took another capsule about 45 minutes ago maybe 10 or 1030. Was that a bad idea, and should I see a doctor immediately? If not a bad thing should I take my morning capsule as usual?

Welcome to ask a doctor online service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If you are having acid reflux even after taking Omiprazole, my opinion is you should take tab. Happi D at morning empty stomach or half an hour before meal.
Reduce tea /coffee intake, spicy food.
Sleep and eat on time.
Take a pillow while sleeping.
Don't lie down immediately after eating.
Hope I have answered your query,
Let me know if I can assist you further.
