Aluminium Hydroxide + Magnesium Hydroxide
Indications
Aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide are suitable for hyperacidity, peptic ulcer, gastritis, heartburn, gastric acid and indigestion.
Pharmacolgy
This drug is a balanced combination of essential non-systemic antacids and is known for its efficacy and palatability. These are reliable antacids and have no acid reflux, constipation or catheterization effects. Both of these preparations can relieve symptoms of hyperacidity caused by heartburn, gastric acid intake or gastric acid.
Aluminum Hydroxide Gel is a slow-acting antacid and long-acting adsorbent, with strong neutralizing ability. Magnesium hydroxide has slow but continuous acid neutralization properties. The antacids in tablets and suspensions have adsorption properties. They form a protective layer on the surface of the ulcer to promote its healing; thereby protecting the sensitive stomach and duodenal mucosa from further irritation.

Suspension: 2 tea spoonful 1-3 hours after meal and at bed time or as directed by the physician.
