Dazol and omeprazole belong to the same class of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and work in the same way to decrease acid production in the stomach. However, few clinical studies have shown that Dazol provides better relief of the symptoms including the daytime pain of duodenal ulcers. The difference in response may also vary in different patients.

Dazol and pantoprazole belong to the same class of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and work in the same way to decrease acid production in the stomach.
