Medication name: Epicogel Antacid Suspension 125 ml
\nDrug class: Antacid and anti-flatulent<\/p>\n
Use:
\nThis medication is used to relieve symptoms of heartburn, acidity, indigestion, and upset stomach caused by excess stomach acid or gas.
\nIt helps soothe burning sensations, bloating, and discomfort after meals.<\/p>\n
How it works:
\nEpicogel contains aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, which neutralize excess stomach acid, reducing irritation in the stomach and esophagus.
\nIt also contains simethicone, which breaks up gas bubbles in the digestive tract, relieving bloating and pressure.
\nTogether, these ingredients provide fast and gentle relief from acid-related discomfort.<\/p>\n
Dosage and administration:
\nShake the bottle well before each use.
\nThe usual adult dose is 5\u201310 ml taken one hour after meals and at bedtime, or as directed by a doctor.
\nFor children, dosing should be based on age and medical advice.
\nDo not exceed the recommended daily dose and do not take for more than 2 weeks without consulting a doctor.
\nIt is best taken after meals for optimal effect.<\/p>\n
Side effects:
\nEpicogel is generally well tolerated.
\nMild side effects may include constipation (from aluminum salts) or diarrhea (from magnesium salts).
\nProlonged use may cause changes in blood mineral balance, particularly in patients with kidney disease.
\nSeek medical attention if you experience persistent stomach pain, nausea, or vomiting.<\/p>\n
Precautions:
\nDo not use if allergic to any of the ingredients.
\nConsult your doctor before use if you have kidney problems, are on a low-phosphate diet, or are taking other medications such as antibiotics, iron supplements, or heart medicines, as antacids may affect their absorption.
\nAvoid use in children under 6 years unless advised by a doctor.
\nUse with caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding only under medical supervision.<\/p>\n

\nStore below 25 \u00b0C and away from direct sunlight and heat.
