How it works?

Uses of Alumina, Magnesia and Simethicone Oral Suspension

Alumina, Magnesia, and Simethicone Oral Suspension are used to treat symptoms of gas and excess stomach acid, such as heartburn, indigestion, bloating, and upset stomach.

It functions by dissolving gas bubbles (simethicone) and neutralizing stomach acid (alumina and magnesia).

Principal applications
Heartburn and acidity: The suspension’s alumina and magnesia neutralize excess stomach acid, quickly relieving the burning sensation in the throat and chest. It can be used after large meals or dietary disruptions to help calm the stomach lining and relieve indigestion and upset stomach.
Bloating and gas: Simethicone helps people release gas through flatulence or belching by reducing the surface tension of gas bubbles.

How do Alumina, Magnesia, and Simethicone Oral Suspension work?

Antacids like aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide help by neutralizing the extra acid in your stomach.

Antiflatulent: Simethicone works by lowering the surface tension of gas bubbles in the stomach, making it easier for them to break apart and be released as gas or through belching.

Precautions of Alumina, Magnesia and Simethicone Oral Suspension

Precautions While Taking Alumina, Magnesia and Simethicone Oral Suspension

  • Constipation Risk: Aluminum hydroxide may cause constipation.
  • Bowel Slowdown: Too much magnesium can slow down bowel movements.
  • Risk of Blockage: Large doses may worsen or cause intestinal blockage, especially in elderly people or those with kidney problems.

Long-Term Use Concerns

  • Phosphate Loss: Taking high or long-term doses—especially with a low-phosphorus diet—can reduce phosphate levels in the body. This may weaken bones and increase calcium in the urine, raising the risk of osteomalacia (soft bones).
  • Medical Advice Needed: Always consult a doctor before long-term use or if you’re at risk of phosphate deficiency.

Special Caution for Kidney Patients

  • People with kidney problems may build up too much aluminum and magnesium in their blood.
  • Long-term use in such cases may lead to memory problems (dementia) or anemia (low red blood cells).

Not Recommended For

  • Patients with porphyria (a rare blood disorder) who are on hemodialysis should avoid aluminum hydroxide, as it may be unsafe.

A pharma CMO is a special kind of an organization, offering contract manufacturing services to pharmaceutical companies for various kinds of drug formulations.

Reduce overall costs and time to market :
Contract manufacturers already have the needed infrastructure and technical staff, so working with a CMO or CDMO can decrease the cost of manufacturing your pharmaceutical products.

Scalability and flexible production capacity :
You can produce what you need when you need it without worrying about excess capacity. Additionally, CMOs understand the importance of quality and compliance, so you don't have to sacrifice safety for scalability.

Save on upgrading and maintaining equipment :
If you have your manufacturing facility, you’ll have to pay to upgrade your equipment as technology advances—which can get expensive. A CMO/CDMO’s only function is to make and distribute products, so part of their core business responsibility is to update their equipment whenever needed and perform maintenance.

Ease supply chain issues :
During the pandemic, there were several instances of supply chain issues, including medicine shortages. CMOs are generally better equipped than startups to handle a supply chain crisis.

Bandwidth to focus on core competencies
When your company resources aren’t directly allocated to manufacturing and distribution, you have more time to focus on other tasks, like marketing your new drug, researching, or working on drug discovery.
