Hello, Phila! How are you doing?
Altosec is used to help reduce the amount of stomach acid that you produce, to treat or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers, and gastritis.
Bevispas is used to help ease spasms of the gastro-intestinal tract.
The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence, and stomach pain.
They may help. Are these the medications your doctor told you to take?
