Answers:
The reason they advise not taking the two together is because Omeprazole (Prilosec) will hinder the absorption of iron and many other substances into your bloodstream..
Your stomach is probably upset simply because iron can do that to you..
There are websites where you can look up drug interactions by typing in two seperate drugs.. I would probably call a pharmacist, as they will be able to give you a detailed explanation of any possible problems from interactions.. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
