Omeprazole or other medications that reduce stomach pH and reduce iron absorption. How does Active Iron differ to prescribed iron or liquid iron?
[19,20] The interaction between omeprazole and iron was of moderate severity, and the mechanism was omeprazole decreases iron absorption, which requires acidic medium.
Our study demonstrates that short duration of omeprazole use does not affect iron absorption in iron-replete healthy individuals who are on a normal diet. Since omeprazole s effect was shown in iron-depletion or iron-overload states, it is plausible that omeprazole may have an effect on iron absorption only in abnormal iron metabolic states.

Although short-term omeprazole therapy does not appear to affect Figure 1. Changes in the serum iron levels at indicated
Omeprazole does not contain iron or calcium as its active ingredient is omeprazole magnesium. However, some formulations of omeprazole may contain inactive ingredients that include calcium or iron
Applies to: omeprazole and Integra Plus (multivitamin with iron) If you are iron-deficient or have anemia, you should talk to your doctor before using multivitamin with iron together with omeprazole. By reducing stomach acid, omeprazole may reduce the absorption of iron and make multivitamin with iron less effective in treating your condition.
omeprazole (Prilosec). So far there is no Benefits and harms of iron supplementation in iron-deficient and iron-sufficient children.
Iron supplementation prevents the development of iron deficiency in rats with omeprazole-induced hypochlorhydria.
Hence Omeprazole being a much more expensive drug than it is now.....
