Welcome to HCM. You no need to take prilosac for rectal bleeding. prilosac is given for upper GI bleeding like bleeding from the stomach and food pipe (esophagus).
They suggested you to see few specialists did they tell you the exact diagnosis.

if it is rectal tumor causing bleeding you no need to take prilosac.
get well soon.
