Oxecone-M 400 mg Chewable Tablet

DESCRIPTION

Oxecone-M (Magaldrate) is a non-systemic antacid. It is very much reliable and remains active for long time. Its antacid activity remains unchanged during prolonged storage. It is used as a buffering agent to neutralize excessive gastric hydrochloric acid.

Oxecone-M is a complex hydroxy magnesium aluminate. The hydroxy magnesium is relatively rapidly converted to magnesium ion and the aluminate to hydrated aluminium hydroxide. The aluminium hydroxide then reacts more slowly to give a sustained antacid effect. Oxecone-M more consistently buffers the gastric contents than do the mixtures. The pH is usually maintained between 3.0 to 5.0 Unlike conventional antacids Oxecone-M is not simply an acid neutralizer but also acts as a "mucous substitute" forming a protective coating over ulcer and lesions. As

Oxecone-M contains low sodium, it is particularly suitable for those patients whose dietary sodium intake is restricted.

Oxecone-M is free from sugar, so it is suitable for diabetic and obese patients also.
