Avlocid Plus Oral Suspension 200ml

This combination antacid is indicated for the symptomatic relief of disorders associated with excessive gastric acid and gastrointestinal gas. It is recommended for the management of:

• Hyperacidity
• Peptic ulcer disease
• Gastritis
• Peptic oesophagitis
• Heartburn
• Acid indigestion (sour stomach)
• Hiatus hernia

It may also be used to help prevent stress-related gastric ulceration and gastrointestinal bleeding in appropriate clinical settings. In addition, its antiflatulent action relieves abdominal bloating, postoperative gas pain, and discomfort caused by excess gastrointestinal gas. The formulation rapidly neutralizes gastric acid, reduces gastric foam, and promotes the expulsion of trapped gas, providing prompt relief from acid-related pain and bloating.

Use this medicine only as prescribed by a registered physician.

This formulation combines two non-systemic antacids with an antiflatulent agent to provide prolonged relief from acid-related gastrointestinal symptoms.

Aluminium Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide neutralize excess hydrochloric acid produced by the stomach, reducing gastric acidity and relieving symptoms associated with acid-peptic disorders. The combination provides sustained antacid activity while balancing the bowel effects commonly associated with either ingredient alone.

Simethicone is an inert anti-foaming agent that decreases the surface tension of gas bubbles within the gastrointestinal tract. This causes small gas bubbles to merge into larger ones, allowing them to be expelled more easily through belching or flatulence. As a result, it effectively relieves abdominal bloating, distension, flatulence, and postoperative gas discomfort.

The formulation may also be used before gastrointestinal radiographic examinations to eliminate excess gas and improve image quality.

Simethicone is not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, does not affect gastric acid secretion or nutrient absorption, and is excreted unchanged in the feces.
