Synonyms methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methyl)sulfinyl]-benzimidazole magnesium; Losec MUPS Tablets; gastrointestinal agent/ gastric proton-pump
inhibitor; anti-ulcerative
Other means of identification Not Available
CAS number 95382-33-5

Relevant identified uses of the substance or mixture and uses advised against
Antiulcerative in the treatment of pathological hypersecretion (e.g. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome). A substituted benzimidazole which does not
exhibit anticholinergic or H2 histamine antagonist properties but suppresses gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of the H+/K+ ATPase
enzyme system at the secretary surface of the gastric parietal cell. Because this enzyme system is regarded as the acid (proton) pump within the
gastric mucosa, omeprazole has been characterised as a gastric-pump inhibitor
Intermediate.
Relevant identified uses
Benzimidazole, a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound consisting of a fusion of benzene and imidazole, in an extension of the well-elaborated
imidazole system, has been used as a carbon skeleton for N-heterocyclic carbenes, usually used as ligand for transition metal complexes.
Pharmacological compounds of benzimidazole derivatives are potent inhibitors for a variety of enzymes. Benzimidazole is a privileged scaffold
(capable of binding to multiple receptors with high affinity), having a variety of therapeutic uses including antitumour, antifungal, antiparasitic,
analgesics, antiviral, antihistamine, as well as use in cardiovascular disease, neurology, endocrinology, and ophthalmology.

Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper
Eye Contact
and lower lids.
Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
If skin contact occurs:
Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
Skin Contact
Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
If dust is inhaled, remove from contaminated area.
Inhalation Encourage patient to blow nose to ensure clear passage of breathing.
If irritation or discomfort persists seek medical attention.
If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
Observe the patient carefully.
Ingestion
Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can comfortably drink.
Seek medical advice.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed


No antidote is known. Omeprazole is extensively protein-bound and is therefore not readily dialysable.
Treat symptomatically.

Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture

Fire Incompatibility Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result

Advice for firefighters

Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves.
Fire Fighting
Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses.
Use water delivered as a fine spray to control fire and cool adjacent area.
Combustible solid which burns but propagates flame with difficulty; it is estimated that most organic dusts are combustible (circa 70%) -
according to the circumstances under which the combustion process occurs, such materials may cause fires and / or dust explosions.
Organic powders when finely divided over a range of concentrations regardless of particulate size or shape and suspended in air or some
other oxidizing medium may form explosive dust-air mixtures and result in a fire or dust explosion (including secondary explosions).
Avoid generating dust, particularly clouds of dust in a confined or unventilated space as dusts may form an explosive mixture with air, and
any source of ignition, i.e. flame or spark, will cause fire or explosion. Dust clouds generated by the fine grinding of the solid are a particular
hazard; accumulations of fine dust (420 micron or less) may burn rapidly and fiercely if ignited - particles exceeding this limit will generally not
form flammable dust clouds; once initiated, however, larger particles up to 1400 microns diameter will contribute to the propagation of an
Fire/Explosion Hazard explosion.
Combustion products include:
carbon monoxide (CO)
carbon dioxide (CO2)
nitrogen oxides (NOx)
sulfur oxides (SOx)
other pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material.
May emit poisonous fumes.
May emit corrosive fumes.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE BANDING


Ingredient Occupational Exposure Band Rating Occupational Exposure Band Limit
omeprazole magnesium D > 0.01 to ≤ 0.1 mg/m³
Occupational exposure banding is a process of assigning chemicals into specific categories or bands based on a chemical's potency and the
Notes: adverse health outcomes associated with exposure. The output of this process is an occupational exposure band (OEB), which corresponds to a
range of exposure concentrations that are expected to protect worker health.

MATERIAL DATA
CEL TWA: 0.5 mg/m3* *[AstraZeneca]
It is the goal of the ACGIH (and other Agencies) to recommend TLVs (or their equivalent) for all substances for which there is evidence of health effects at airborne concentrations
encountered in the workplace.
At this time no TLV has been established, even though this material may produce adverse health effects (as evidenced in animal experiments or clinical experience). Airborne
concentrations must be maintained as low as is practically possible and occupational exposure must be kept to a minimum.
NOTE: The ACGIH occupational exposure standard for Particles Not Otherwise Specified (P.N.O.S) does NOT apply.
Airborne particulate or vapour must be kept to levels as low as is practicably achievable given access to modern engineering controls and monitoring hardware. Biologically active
compounds may produce idiosyncratic effects which are entirely unpredictable on the basis of literature searches and prior clinical experience (both recent and past).

Exposure controls
Enclosed local exhaust ventilation is required at points of dust, fume or vapour generation.
Appropriate engineering HEPA terminated local exhaust ventilation should be considered at point of generation of dust, fumes or vapours.
controls Barrier protection or laminar flow cabinets should be considered for laboratory scale handling.
A fume hood or vented balance enclosure is recommended for weighing/ transferring quantities exceeding 500 mg.

Personal protection

When handling very small quantities of the material eye protection may not be required.
For laboratory, larger scale or bulk handling or where regular exposure in an occupational setting occurs:
Eye and face protection
Chemical goggles.
Face shield. Full face shield may be required for supplementary but never for primary protection of eyes.
Skin protection See Hand protection below
NOTE:
The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and other protective
equipment, to avoid all possible skin contact.
Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.
The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance
and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and.has to be observed when
making a final choice.
Hands/feet protection Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.
Rubber gloves (nitrile or low-protein, powder-free latex, latex/ nitrile). Employees allergic to latex gloves should use nitrile gloves in
preference.
Double gloving should be considered.
PVC gloves.
Experience indicates that the following polymers are suitable as glove materials for protection against undissolved, dry solids, where abrasive
particles are not present.
polychloroprene.
nitrile rubber.
butyl rubber.
Body protection See Other protection below
For quantities up to 500 grams a laboratory coat may be suitable.
For quantities up to 1 kilogram a disposable laboratory coat or coverall of low permeability is recommended. Coveralls should be buttoned at

collar and cuffs.
For quantities over 1 kilogram and manufacturing operations, wear disposable coverall of low permeability and disposable shoe covers.

Respiratory protection
Particulate. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:001, ANSI Z88 or national equivalent)

Selection of the Class and Type of respirator will depend upon the level of breathing zone contaminant and the chemical nature of the contaminant. Protection Factors (defined as the
ratio of contaminant outside and inside the mask) may also be important.

Respirators may be necessary when engineering and administrative controls do not adequately prevent exposures.
The decision to use respiratory protection should be based on professional judgment that takes into account toxicity information, exposure measurement data, and frequency and
likelihood of the worker's exposure - ensure users are not subject to high thermal loads which may result in heat stress or distress due to personal protective equipment (powered,
positive flow, full face apparatus may be an option).
Published occupational exposure limits, where they exist, will assist in determining the adequacy of the selected respiratory protection. These may be government mandated or
vendor recommended.
Certified respirators will be useful for protecting workers from inhalation of particulates when properly selected and fit tested as part of a complete respiratory protection program.
Use approved positive flow mask if significant quantities of dust becomes airborne.
Try to avoid creating dust conditions.

SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Information on toxicological effects

The material is not thought to produce either adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract following inhalation (as classified by EC
Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, adverse systemic effects have been produced following exposure of animals by at least one other
route and good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational
setting.
Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronic bronchitis, may incur further disability
Inhaled if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.
If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained, proper screenings should be
conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use of the material result
in excessive exposures.

Limited evidence exists that the substance may cause irreversible but non-lethal mutagenic effects following a single exposure.
Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual.
Ingestion Limited evidence exists that the substance may cause irreversible but non-lethal mutagenic effects following a single exposure.
Treatment with omeprazole is generally well tolerated. Side-effects may include headache, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, nausea, URI, dizziness,

vomiting, rash, constipation, cough, asthenia and back pain. Rare adverse events include fever, pain, fatigue, malaise, and abdominal swelling.
Other effects include;
Gastrointestinal: Pancreatitis (some fatal), anorexia, irritable colon, flatulence, faecal discolouration, oesophageal candidiasis, mucosal atrophy of
the tongue, dry mouth, fundic gland polyps (benign and reversible), gastroduodenal carcinoid (believed to be a manifestation of the underlying
condition associated with ZE syndrome);
Hepatic: Elevation of liver function tests (ALT(SGPT), AST(SGOT), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, alkaline phosphatase, and bilirubin
(jaundice), overt liver disease including hepatocellular, cholestatic or mixed hepatitis, liver necrosis (sometimes fatal), and hepatic
encephalopathy;
Metabolic: Hyponatraemia, hypoglycaemia, weight gain; Musculoskeletal: Muscle cramps, myalgia, muscle weakness, joint pain, leg pain;
Nervous System: Psychic disturbances including depression, aggression, hallucinations, confusion, insomnia, nervousness, tremors, apathy,
somnolence, anxiety, dream abnormalities, vertigo, paresthesia, hemifacial dysesthesia;
Respiratory: Epistaxis, pharyngeal pain;
Skin: Rash, and in very rare cases of severe generalised skin reactions, toxic epidermal necrosis (TEN), sometimes fatal, Stevens-Johnson
syndrome and erythema multiforme (sometimes severe), skin inflammation, urticaria, angioedema, pruritus, alopecia, dry skin, hyperhidrosis;
Special senses: Tinnitus, taste perversion; Urogenital: Interstitial nephritis (some with positive rechallenge), urinary tract infection, microscopic
pyuria, urinary frequency, elevated serum creatinine, proteinuria, haematuria, glycosuria, testicular pain, gynaecomastia;
Haematologic: Pancytopenia, agranulocytosis (sometimes fatal), thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, anaemia, leucocytosis, and haemolytic
anaemia.
Gastric proton pump inhibitors (GPPIs) are generally well tolerated, and the incidence of short-term adverse effects is relatively uncommon. The
range and occurrence of adverse effects are similar for all of the proton pump inhibitors, though they have been reported more frequently with
omeprazole. This may be due to its longer availability and hence clinical experience.
Common adverse effects include: headache, nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, fatigue, dizziness.
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal
models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational
setting.
Skin Contact
Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material
Entry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may produce systemic injury with harmful effects.
Examine the skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eye may cause transient discomfort
Eye characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). Slight abrasive damage may also result. The material may produce foreign
body irritation in certain individuals.
Practical experience shows that skin contact with the material is capable either of inducing a sensitisation reaction in a substantial number of
individuals, and/or of producing a positive response in experimental animals.
On the basis, primarily, of animal experiments, concern has been expressed by at least one classification body that the material may produce
carcinogenic or mutagenic effects; in respect of the available information, however, there presently exists inadequate data for making a
satisfactory assessment.
Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce cumulative health effects involving organs or
biochemical systems.
A number of benzimidazoles have been shown to also inhibit mammalian tubulin polymerisation and to be aneugenic in vivo. Aneugens affect cell
division and the mitotic spindle apparatus resulting in loss or gain of whole chromosomes, thereby inducing an "aneuploidy". Mitotic aneuploidy is
a characteristic of many types of tumorigenesis (in cancer). Several benzimidazoles have been shown to be genotoxic.
In a study of 135,000 people 50 or older, those taking high doses of GPPIs for longer than one year have been found to be 2.6 times more likely
Chronic to break a hip. Those taking smaller doses for 1 to 4 years were 1.2 to 1.6 times more likely to break a hip. The risk of a fracture increased with
the length of time taking GPPIs. Theories as to the cause of the increase are the possibility that the reduction of stomach acid reduces the
amount of calcium dissolved in the stomach or that GPPIs may interfere with the breakdown and rebuilding of bone by interfering with the acid
production of osteoclasts.
Omeprazole is a skin strong sensitiser in animal assays.
Repeated oral doses of omeprazole in animals have produced adverse effects on kidney and the gastrointestinal tract. Short term tests show that
the material is unlikely to be a carcinogenic hazard in man.
In two 24-month carcinogenicity studies in rats, omeprazole (given at 4-352 times the human dosage) produced gastric ECL cell carcinoids in a
dose-related manner in both male and female rats ECL cell hyperplasia was present in all treatment groups.

Long term exposure to high dust concentrations may cause changes in lung function (i.e. pneumoconiosis) caused by particles less than 0.5
micron penetrating and remaining in the lung. A prime symptom is breathlessness. Lung shadows show on X-ray.

The following information refers to contact allergens as a group and may not be specific to this product.
Contact allergies quickly manifest themselves as contact eczema, more rarely as urticaria or Quincke's oedema. The pathogenesis of contact
eczema involves a cell-mediated (T lymphocytes) immune reaction of the delayed type. Other allergic skin reactions, e.g. contact urticaria,
OMEPRAZOLE MAGNESIUM involve antibody-mediated immune reactions. The significance of the contact allergen is not simply determined by its sensitisation potential: the
distribution of the substance and the opportunities for contact with it are equally important.
Exposure to the material may result in a possible risk of irreversible effects. The material may produce mutagenic effects in man. This concern is
raised, generally, on the basis of
appropriate studies with similar materials using mammalian somatic cells in vivo. Such findings are often supported by positive results from in
vitro mutagenicity studies.
NOTE: Substance has been shown to be mutagenic in at least one assay, or belongs to a family of chemicals producing damage or change to
cellular DNA.
