How does omeprazole compare to famotidine for treating GERD symptoms and what factors should be considered when choosing between these two medications for symptom management?
Omeprazole is a PPI that provides longer-lasting relief by reducing stomach acid production. Famotidine, an H2 blocker, offers quicker relief but may be less effective for severe GERD. Choose based on symptom severity and frequency.
