Medical Description

Mep powder for injection is used to reduce stomach acid in acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, excessive acid production and selected ulcer-related bleeding situations. It contains omeprazole sodium, a proton pump inhibitor that lowers the amount of acid released by the stomach. By switching off the stomach's acid-producing pumps, omeprazole can relieve acid irritation and support ulcer healing. Mep injection is prepared and given into a vein by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic when an injectable form is considered appropriate. It is used when a doctor considers an injection more suitable than an oral form.

Uses

  • Acid reflux: Stomach acid flowing into the food pipe can cause heartburn and sour fluid; Mep injection reduces acid so irritation can settle.
  • Peptic ulcers: These are sores in the stomach or upper intestine; reducing acid gives the damaged lining a better chance to heal.
  • Zollinger-Ellison syndrome: This condition causes unusually high stomach acid production; omeprazole helps bring acid production under control.
  • Ulcer-related bleeding: In selected hospital patients, omeprazole may be used with other care to help prevent or manage bleeding from an ulcer.
  • Stress-ulcer prevention: Seriously ill hospital patients may receive acid suppression to reduce the risk of stress-related ulcers when their doctor considers it appropriate.
  • Prevention of aspiration-related complications: Acid suppression before anaesthesia may reduce acidity if stomach contents enter the airways.

Contraindications

If you are allergic to any ingredient of this medicine or to another proton pump inhibitor, do not use it. Do not use it with rilpivirine unless the treating doctor changes the treatment plan.

Side effects

  • Headache: Changes in stomach acid treatment can be associated with headache during the early part of therapy. Tell your doctor if it is severe or accompanied by vision changes.

  • Nausea or vomiting: Some people feel sick or vomit after treatment, particularly around the time of an injection. Tell the nurse if vomiting prevents you from keeping fluids down.
  • Abdominal pain, flatulence or constipation: Changes in digestion may cause tummy discomfort, bloating or harder stools. Report severe pain, black stools or vomiting blood urgently.

Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Use Mep injection during pregnancy only when your doctor decides that treatment is needed after considering the possible benefits and risks.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Omeprazole may pass into breast milk. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding so they can decide whether this injection is appropriate.

Driving

Driving

Mep injection may cause dizziness or blurred vision. Do not drive if these effects occur.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Safety with alcohol is not established. Ask your doctor whether alcohol is appropriate during treatment, especially if it worsens reflux symptoms.

Directions for Use

This injection will be given by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic. Do not self-inject. The healthcare professional will prepare the powder and administer it into a vein according to your condition. Tell them if you use acid-reducing medicines or have difficulty swallowing tablets.

Storage and disposal

The hospital or clinic should store Mep injection as directed on the pack, protected from heat and light. Do not use a vial that is damaged, expired or has an unusual appearance. Healthcare staff should discard prepared or unused medicine safely.

Quick Tips

  • Tell the healthcare team about every medicine and supplement you use before the injection.
  • Report black stools, vomiting blood, severe abdominal pain or persistent diarrhoea urgently.
  • Avoid foods and drinks that clearly trigger your reflux, such as very spicy or fatty meals.
  • Eat smaller meals if large meals worsen your symptoms.
  • Do not stop long-term treatment without discussing it with your doctor.

Dosage

Overdose

Confusion, dizziness, blurred vision, nausea or other unusual symptoms may occur after too much omeprazole. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Mep injection contains omeprazole sodium. It blocks the final step used by acid-producing cells in the stomach, so less acid enters the stomach and food pipe. This reduces irritation, relieves acid-related symptoms and gives ulcers a better environment to heal. The injection is used when a healthcare professional considers an injectable form necessary.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Mep injection works. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins and supplements you take. In particular, rilpivirine should not be used with omeprazole, erlotinib and other medicines needing stomach acid may have reduced absorption, methotrexate toxicity may increase, clopidogrel activation may decrease, and warfarin, phenytoin, digoxin, tacrolimus or ciclosporin levels or effects may change.
