What otc medicine should I take for a stomach ulcer? ?
I have a stomach ulcer because I was taking 800mg ibuprofen 3 times a day for two weeks. I bought 14 day Omeprazole pills. Will only this treat it? Or should I take Pepcid which has Famotidine?

Not Pepcid, but I would tell you doctor what you are taking. Pepcid is more for an upset stomach (transitory), not an ulcer.

Adding another drug on top of the ibuprofen you took isn't going to help it heal.
If you think you have an ulcer, at least get a doctor's verification first. You might just have done some damage to the esophagus.
