Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a common over-the-counter medication, omeprazole, on the normal gut bacteria and inflammation in the body in healthy older adults.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Healthy Volunteers Drug: Omeprazole Early Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This study aims to enroll 25 healthy subjects from San Antonio, Texas and the surrounding area. Study participants will be asked to provide a blood and stool sample at baseline, complete a 14-day course of omeprazole (Prilosec®), and then complete a follow-up blood and stool sample.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Healthy subjects Drug: Omeprazole
20mg orally once daily


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in fecal microbiota diversity following omeprazole use [ Time Frame: 14 days ]
    Bacterial taxa will be classified according to operational taxonomic units (OTUs). The change in the diversity of bacteria taxa will be compared between pre- and post-samples using the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity measure.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in interleukin inflammatory markers following omeprazole use [ Time Frame: 14 days ]
    Interleukin 2, interleukin-6, and interleukin-10 will be measured from the blood at baseline and following omeprazole use and each reported in pg/mL.

  2. Change in tumor necrosis factor-alpha following omeprazole use [ Time Frame: 14 days ]
    Tumor necrosis factor-alpha will be measured from the blood at baseline and following omeprazole use and reported in pg/mL.

  3. Change in insulin-like growth factor-1 due following omeprazole use [ Time Frame: 14 days ]
    Insulin-like growth factor-1 will be measured from the blood at baseline and following omeprazole use and reported in ng/mL.
