Mechanism of Action
- Magaldrate (Hydroxymagnesium Aluminate): A balanced antacid that rapidly neutralises excess gastric acid, raising gastric pH and providing prompt relief from heartburn and acid-related pain. Unlike simple antacids, Magaldrate releases aluminium and magnesium ions in a controlled manner, providing sustained buffering action with reduced risk of acid rebound
- Simethicone (Anti-Flatulent): A surface-active agent that reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles in the GI tract, causing them to coalesce into larger bubbles that can be expelled more easily — relieving bloating, flatulence, and discomfort caused by trapped gas
- Oxetacaine (Topical Local Anaesthetic): Provides localised surface anaesthesia to the oesophageal and gastric mucosa, rapidly numbing painful and irritated mucosal surfaces — offering immediate pain and burning relief in gastritis and oesophagitis that antacids alone cannot address
Together they deliver triple-action relief — acid neutralisation, gas elimination, and mucosal pain relief.
Instructions to Take
- Shake the bottle vigorously before every use
- Measure the dose accurately using the measuring cup provided
- Take 20–30 minutes after meals and at bedtime for best antacid effect
- Do not take simultaneously with other oral medications — maintain a 2-hour gap
- Do not use for more than 2 weeks continuously without medical advice
- Refrigerate after opening if directed on the label — a chilled suspension is often better tolerated
- Store in a cool, dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Check expiry date before use
