Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+oxetacaine+simethicone

Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+oxetacaine+simethicone is used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset.

Aluminium Hydroxide+magnesium Hydroxide+oxetacaine+simethicone contains Aluminium hydroxide (antacid), magnesium hydroxide (antacid),oxethazaine (local anaesthetic) and Simethicone (anti-flatulent). Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide works by neutralising excess stomach acid. Oxethazaine exerts a numbing effect, thereby provides relief from pain due to ulcers or acidic injury in the stomach. Simethicone works by lowering the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitates the expulsion of gas through flatus or belching (burping).
