Antacid, Antiflatulent suspension
Antacid, Antiflatulent suspension is a balanced mixture of two antacids and an antiflatulent/antifoaming agent simeticone. The two antacids are magnesium hydroxide which is fast acting and aluminium hydroxide which is a slow acting antacid. The combination produces a fast onset of action and an increase in total buffering time. Aluminium hydroxide on its own is an astringent and may cause constipation. This effect is balanced by the effect of the magnesium hydroxide which is in common with other magnesium salts may cause diarrhoea. Sodium Alginate forms a rigid raft of alginic acid in the stomach reducing gastric reflux. This raft formed is maintained in the stomach for two hours.
