Good day.

Kindly advise as to when Altosec must be consumed i.e. before or after meals?

Thanks for the information Bill! I was able to read more information about Omeprazole to get an idea of what to expect (since it's the same active ingredient).

My mother was prescribed Altosec in Cape Town, South Africa earlier this year because she has a sensitive stomach and often gets gastro-esophagal reflux. it has worked unbelievably well for her. i have some information which i hope will help you.

ALTOSEC – 20MG (take after meals)

Dark & light pink capsule with 20 printed in black on the light pink area and OAM printed in the dark pink area. The A is printed above the O & M in a triangle shape.

Altosec is a foreign (South African) brand name for Omeprazole, commonly sold in the U.S. under the brand name Prilosec.

This is used to prevent heartburn and gastro-esophagal reflux.

The most common side effects include headache, nausea and other conditions.

Unfortunately, since this isn't something available in the U.S., finding information on it is extremely difficult.

does anyone know what colourants are used in Altosec tablets please? I'm allergic to colorants in the azo dye group, mostly reds, browns, orange colours. These capsules are brownish red.

I use 1 x Altosec capsule daily (20mg) which is to take away heartburn / reflux associated with a small hiatus hernia that I have. My gastro prescribed it for me.

I can only suggest that you ask your doctor for more information on it.
