Mechanism of Action

Oxecone-M Suspension works through Magaldrate’s acid-neutralizing properties:

1. Neutralization of Gastric Acid:

   • Magaldrate reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) in the stomach to form aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, which are harmless salts.

   • This reaction rapidly increases the pH of gastric contents, providing relief from acidity and heartburn.

2. Mucosal Protection:

   • The formation of a protective layer on the stomach and esophageal lining reduces irritation caused by acid reflux.

   • Helps prevent further damage to the mucosa in conditions of occasional hyperacidity.

3. Balanced Action:

   • Magaldrate combines the effects of aluminium and magnesium, balancing constipation and diarrhea risks often associated with antacids.

   • Ensures comfortable gastrointestinal relief without altering electrolyte balance significantly when used appropriately.
