Hi,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for posting your question.

Coming to your question, hepa merz contains ornithine and aspartate, which are commonly prescribed in liver disorders. It is mainly useful to detoxify ammonia. Side effects of hepa merz are mainly nausea, vomiting and abdominal discomfort, but they are very rare. It should be avoided in renal insufficiency, if creatinine is more than 3mg/dl.

Omeprazole is proton pump inhibitor and it decreases the production of acid in stomach. You can site all the side effects of omeprazole on google, but again they are very rare, but can commonly lead to stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and headache. If you have symptoms like convulsions, blurred vision, confusion and kidney problems, then you should stop the drug and consult your doctor for further evaluation.

Hope this answers your question and ask me any of your further relevant queries.
