Many kits consider a change from yellow/light orange to pink/red within 24 hours as positive. Some specify orange to pink as positive, and lighter shades (like pale pink or orange) can occur, but stronger pink/red is more definitive.In your case:
It turned orange after 12 hours → this could be an early or partial change (some kits interpret orange as part of the positive spectrum).
Then pink after 24 hours → this is generally considered a positive result for H. pylori, especially since the change happened within the standard 24-hour reading window (not after 24 hours, which could be less reliable or false positive from other bacteria).

Your query and your test and your prescription don’t add up.
If you are able to send the endoscopy report and recent CBP, Liver functions tests, INR and KFT reports.
All the best.
