It is important to take Omeprazole regularly. It turned my life around for me as I had spent years with the most awful heartburn that would make me gag on the acid. I had been chewing Rennies etc and also taking Gaviscon and nothing was making a jot of difference anymore. Finally my GP took notice of me when I said I couldn't go on like it anymore. I was sent for the camera down the throat which identified that I had Chronic Gastritis and also the Heliobacter Pylorri bug so treatment was started right away and then when that was completed I was put onto Omeprazole which I took for a few years until I felt I was getting problems again. I now take Esomaprazole which has settled it down again.
