Aluminium Hydroxide + Magnesium Hydroxide + Sodium Alginate Uses
Aluminium Hydroxide+Magnesium Hydroxide+Sodium Alginate is used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) and heartburn.
How Aluminium Hydroxide + Magnesium Hydroxide + Sodium Alginate works
Aluminium Hydroxide + Magnesium Hydroxide + Sodium Alginate is a combination of aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and sodium alginate. Aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide are antacids that neutralize excess stomach acid. This helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn and acid-related discomfort. Sodium alginate forms a gel-like protective layer over the stomach contents. This layer acts as a physical barrier that helps reduce the backflow of stomach contents into the food pipe (esophagus). Together, these ingredients help relieve acid reflux, heartburn, and discomfort.
