SuspensionClinical Overview
Magaldrate (400mg/540mg) and Simethicone (20mg/50mg, with or without Oxetacaine 10mg) Oral Suspension is a balanced antacid, antiflatulent, and mucosal anesthetic formulation. Magaldrate (hydroxymagnesium aluminate complex) reacts rapidly with gastric acid to buffer intragastric pH to the ideal 3.0-5.0 range, neutralizing acid without causing acid rebound. Simethicone breaks mucosal gas bubbles to relieve bloating. Oxetacaine (when present) provides prompt topical anesthesia on inflamed gastric and esophageal mucosa. Indicated for hyperacidity, heartburn, reflux esophagitis, gastritis, and peptic ulcer pain with flatulence.

Usage Guidelines
Shake bottle well before use. Take 5 to 10 mL orally after meals and at bedtime (or when acid burning occurs), with or without a small sip of water. Maximum 4 times daily.
General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.
Possible Side Effects
Common: Chalky taste, mild diarrhea or constipation (balanced by magnesium and aluminum components), nausea. Rare/Severe: Hypermagnesemia and aluminum toxicity in patients with severe renal failure.
*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.
Precautions & Warnings
Over-The-Counter antacid. Do not exceed recommended doses. Patients with renal insufficiency should avoid long-term use due to magnesium/aluminum accumulation. Space other oral medications by at least 2 hours.

Dried Aluminium Hydroxide 250mg + Magnesium Hydroxide 250mg + Activated Dimethicone 50mg Tablets
Dried Aluminium Hydroxide (250mg), Magnesium Hydroxide (250mg), and Activated Dimethicone (50mg) Tablets and Suspension is a classic balanced antacid and antiflatulent on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. Aluminium hydroxide provides slow, prolonged acid neutralization (constipating), while magnesium hydroxide acts rapidly (laxative), providing a well-balanced bowel action. Dimethicone defoams gas bubbles, relieving gastric fullness and flatulence. Indicated for symptomatic relief of heartburn, acid indigestion, hyperacidity, and peptic ulcer symptoms.
Dried Aluminium Hydroxide 250mg + Magnesium Hydroxide 250mg + Activated Dimethicone 50mg per 5ml Suspension
Dried Aluminium Hydroxide (250mg), Magnesium Hydroxide (250mg), and Activated Dimethicone (50mg) Tablets and Suspension is a classic balanced antacid and antiflatulent on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. Aluminium hydroxide provides slow, prolonged acid neutralization (constipating), while magnesium hydroxide acts rapidly (laxative), providing a well-balanced bowel action. Dimethicone defoams gas bubbles, relieving gastric fullness and flatulence. Indicated for symptomatic relief of heartburn, acid indigestion, hyperacidity, and peptic ulcer symptoms.
Oxetacaine + Aluminium Hydroxide + Magnesium Hydroxide Suspension
Oxetacaine, Aluminium Hydroxide, and Magnesium Hydroxide Suspension is an anesthetic antacid combination. Aluminium and magnesium hydroxides provide balanced, nonsystemic neutralization of gastric hydrochloric acid, raising gastric pH and inhibiting peptic activity without causing rebound hypersecretion. Oxetacaine is a potent, non-irritating surface anesthetic that retains local anesthetic efficacy in strongly acidic environments (pH 1-2), producing rapid and long-lasting relief from acute burning ulcer and esophagitis pain. Indicated for severe acute gastritis, esophagitis, heartburn, and peptic ulcer pain.
Pancreatin 170mg + Activated Dimethicone 80mg Tablets
Pancreatin (170mg) with Bile Salts (Sodium Tauroglycocholate 65mg) and/or Dimethicone (80mg) Tablets is a comprehensive digestive enzyme and emulsifying formulation. Pancreatin provides amylase, lipase, and protease; tauroglycocholate emulsifies dietary fats and activates pancreatic lipase for optimal absorption; dimethicone reduces surface tension of trapped gas bubbles. Indicated for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, chronic pancreatitis, dyspepsia, fatty food intolerance, and flatulent indigestion.
