Omeprazole on Empaglaflozin

Here are two on line drug interaction checkers:

Neither of them flag up an interaction between those two meds, which is odd. I’d go back to the pharmacist and ask for more info or check with your Dr.

Your pharmacist will be able to check for you if there are any interactions.
Take care

Thanks for such quick and helpful replies.
I have written to the GP to ask for review and also looked on line and like you all I couldn’t find any information.
It really upset me I must say.
Thanks for the support.

You've done exactly the right thing. The pharmacist should have been clearer but to give him/her the benefit of the doubt there could be something else influencing his opinion in your case. Best to check. Sorry you were upset and hope you got a quick appointment with your GP for the meds review. Good Luck.
