Question: can omeprazole cause difficulty swallowing?
Answer: Strong anti-acids, such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole among others, are frequently used to treat this condition. Another cause of dysphagia is Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EE), which is more common in young adults. The symptoms are similar to those of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
