Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose
About Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose
Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose belongs to a group of medicines called 'antacids' used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset. The stomach is usually protected from acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, the mucous layer gets eroded due to excess acid production, which leads to complications like acidity and heartburn.
Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose is a combination of four drugs: aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, simethicone and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide works by neutralising excess stomach acid. Simethicone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract. Sodium carboxymethylcellulose forms a protective barrier, thereby preventing irritation due to acid. Together, Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose provides relief from acidity.
Take Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose as recommended. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as constipation, loss of appetite, weakness and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not take Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose if you're allergic to any ingredient in it. Inform your doctor before taking Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose if you have low phosphate levels, high magnesium levels, or kidney or liver problems. Consult your doctor before taking Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose should be given to children only if advised by the doctor. Avoid consuming alcohol with Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+simethicone+sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose as it could increase acidity.

Disease/Condition Glossary
The stomach is usually protected from the acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, the mucous layer gets eroded due to excess acid production, which leads to complications like acidity. Due to this, acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms include heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing. Indigestion is the feeling of fullness. It occurs due to slow gastric emptying. Symptoms include stomach pain, bloating, heartburn, nausea and vomiting.
