	Losec
		Losec capsules and Losec MUPS tablets (MUPS = Multiple Unit Pellet System) contain the active ingredient omeprazole, which is a type of medicine called a proton pump inhibitor.
		For this reason, Losec capsules contain the omeprazole in granules that have a special enteric coat to protect the omeprazole from the acid.
		Losec capsules and MUPS tablets must not be chewed, broken or crushed, as this would destroy the special coat, allowing the omeprazole to be broken down in the stomach and making it ineffective.

	[Ip-health] EU: AstraZeneca misused patent rules
		By the late 1990's, the ulcer treatment, Losec, which is sold in the United States under the name Prilosec, had grown into one of the biggest-selling prescription drugs of all time.

		Losec was the best-selling prescription drug globally for much of the 1990s.
		After a six-year investigation, the Commission found the company had mislead regulators in order to extend the life of its patent, protecting it from competition between 1993 and 2000.
		It said the fine did "not take into account the substantial evidence submitted by the company with regard to the use of Losec as just one of the treatments available for treatment of stomach acid disorders".
