Antacid + carminative ATX code: A02AF02
Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Combined remedy, the action of which is due to its constituent components. It has an antacid, absorbent, enveloping, carminative effect. Algeldrate (aluminum hydroxide) and magnesium hydroxide neutralize free hydrochloric acid in the stomach, lower the acidity of gastric juice, and bind bile acids. The laxative effect of magnesium hydroxide balances the ability of Algeldrat to slow down intestinal motility. Simethicone hinders the formation of gas bubbles and promotes their destruction. The gases released during this are absorbed by the intestinal walls and excreted from the body due to peristalsis. Pharmacokinetics Due to physiological and chemical inertness, Simethicone is not absorbed into organs and tissues and, after passing through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), is excreted unchanged.The absorption of aluminum and magnesium ions in the intestine is low. With normal kidney function, the concentration of aluminum and magnesium in the blood does not change. In patients with chronic renal failure, the level of aluminum and magnesium in the blood can rise to toxic levels as a result of impaired excretion.
