"Antero-" refers to events or information that occurred before the onset of amnesia, while "retro-" refers to events or information that occurred after the onset of amnesia. Therefore, the opposite of "antero-" is "retro-" and the opposite of "retro-" is "antero-". The best choice for the missing words is "after" and "before" to maintain a similar meaning to the original word pair.
