Hi researchmaven,
Hope you're doing well. My wife hadn't been feeling well lately, so we've delayed starting her on Altevia. I think Sunday Sept. 1st she'll be taking her first tablet. I know everybody's different but, in your case, what kinds and locations of pain did you experience and what did you take to relieve the pain? And was it effective?
As I have a very sensitive gut, I didn't take any OTC products (and still do not). I just ate bland food afterwards.
If your wife drinks one and one-half to two glasses of water with the pill, she should avoid gut pain.
Note: My specialist never said that I needed a giant breakfast (I came up with that myself), and just recently told me to take the Atelvia with lots of water.

Hi jojo4cm,
I only had gut pain. Nothing else.

Experiment. I did and found what worked for me.
Researchmaven: Thanks once again for being SO helpful!!
