Clinical Overview

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.

Usage Guidelines

Shake well before use. Take 5 to 10 mL orally four times daily, 15 minutes before meals and at bedtime. Do not swallow rapidly with water; allow the suspension to coat the esophagus and stomach.

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, tongue numbness, mild constipation or diarrhea, nausea. Rare/Severe: Hypophosphatemia, hypermagnesemia, and neurotoxicity in 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

Contraindicated in hypophosphatemia and severe renal impairment. Oxetacaine produces numbness of oral mucosa; swallow carefully to prevent choking. Avoid taking other oral drugs within 2 hours.
