It is known most commonly as Prilosec but is sold under many different names depending on where in the world you seek the medication. It is available in 10, 20, and 40mg tablets in most areas and in some markets it is also available in 80mg tablets. The medication was first sold as Losec, but it was changed to Prilosec after the FDA requested a name change to avoid confusion between this medication ad the diuretic Lasix. Like all medications on the market, Prilosec may be associated with unwanted side effects.
