Maalox from which suspension helps. Maalox instructions for use, contraindications, side effects, reviews

With gastritis, heartburn, hernia and other stomach problems, it is recommended to use Maalox. Reviews are mostly positive; When buying does not require a recipe from the doctor, which makes the drug very popular.

But before trying an antacid on yourself, it is recommended to consult with a gastroenterologist, because there is always a risk of developing an allergic reaction, individual intolerance.

"Whenever I appeared strong pain In the stomach (especially after the use of greasy and sharp products) I drank Maalox tablet. The relief occurred in the process of dissolving the medication, so the use of antacid literally entered the habit. After a few years, I began to notice that to eliminate unpleasant symptoms, I need to drink 2 tablets. Ultimately, the drug ceased to cope even with an ordinary heartburn.

After referring to the gastroenterologist, it turned out that small yasers were formed on the walls of the stomach. The doctor explained that Maalox is really very effective in exacerbation of most stomach diseases, but long-term reception of pills can be dangerous to health care gasts.

As a result, I had to completely refuse to eat acute, oily and fried food, smoking and even my beloved chocolate. Disorders digestive system Now worry me much less often. But Maaloks will not drink any more, as I think that it was he who triggered the appearance of an ulcer (at least the doctor did not confirm this theory). I recommend not to repeat my mistakes and drink medicine only with really strong pains. "

Kiryushina Valentina, 35 years old

"Due to the fact that I often drive a business trip and eat badly, I suffer literally from the whole" bouquet "of the gastrointestinal diseases. Always put in the road aid kit of Maalox tablets. Convenient format, relatively low cost, the ability to purchase without a recipe literally in any pharmacy is the most important advantages of this antacid.

I can confirm all positive feedback. Maalox with gastritis is really indispensable. After 10-15 minutes after receiving the tablet, the full disappearance of pain is felt. So it was the pills that I would recommend to acquire everything, who often suffers from heartburn or exacerbations of gastritis, does not have the time and ability to mess with a suspension. "

Yermolaev Alexey, 38 years

"For the past few months I literally got the heartburn. Folk Methods Help, but not long. And you won't take with you on vacation or business trip soda. Behind the selection of the optimal medication decided to consult a doctor. Due to the fact that I suffer from diabetes mellitus, not all drugs come to me. Gastroenetrologist suggested trying Maalox without sugar.

Naturally before buying, I carefully examined the reviews on how Maalox acts from heartburn, and only only then tested the medicine for himself. I can confirm the fact that only one tablet completely eliminates the discomfort in the stomach. But the most important thing for me (and other diabetics) is that after taking the drug, the sugar level does not rise "

Patient reviews about Maalox in the form of a suspension

"Never suffered from pain in the stomach, so he ate literally everything in a row in unlimited quantities. And then after the next feast, the belly twisted so that he could not even get up from the sofa. Even a sip of ordinary water led to a wave of convulsion. The wife, on the recommendation of the pharmacist, acquired Maalox. Cost for 250 ml. The suspension was 400 rubles. Bribed and the fact that the reviews of doctors about Maalox are generally positive.

But after I accepted the medicine, pain intensified so much that I had to look for a gastroenterologist on the day off! The specialist diagnosed acute gastritis with increased acidity and advised to acquire Almagl.

As it turned out, Maaloks cannot be taken on an empty stomach, it will only worsen the situation (which happened to me). But Almagel has no such restrictions. Therefore, those who will decide on self-medium, it is necessary to take into account such an important nuance. "

Denisov Vasily, 55 years

"I have always suffered from increased acidity, but usually coped with a problem with folk remedies. But during the protection period thesiswhen there was no time to organize proper nutrition, I had a constant nausea. When it came to vomiting, I had to seek help to the doctor. A specialist advised to drink Maaloks and sit on a special diet several weeks. Already 5 minutes after receiving the first dose of the medicine, I felt a significant alleviation of my stomach pain, and nausea passed around a day.

But there is money and disadvantages. For example, the doctor prescribed me to drink exactly 20 ml. Suspension. I acquired a large bottle of 250 ml. And with surprise I learned that there is no measuring cap in the kit. Measure exactly 20 ml of medication using a conventional spoon is rather problematic. Accordingly, it is impossible to take a suspension outside the house. Secondly, I absolutely did not like the taste: a long time felt "metal" in the mouth.

Of course, the manufacturer allows the medicine to be powered by a small amount of water or milk, but the oppusory taste still pursues me very long. Another disadvantage: an extremely uncomfortable lid. Since I used not one bottle of suspension, I can say that this is not a single marriage. The medicine simply follows even from under a tightly twisted lid! Given the sufficiently high cost of the suspension, throwing out to 10% of the volume is extremely unpleasant.

As a conclusion, I can say that Maaloks, of course, acts, but in annoying trifles loses to its analogues. "

Zinchenko Victoria, 24 years

"I periodically suffered from strong heartburn. Recruited either home remedies or the cheapest pharmacy preparations. During pregnancy, heartburn increased significantly, and folk recipes It turned out to be powerless. Internet reviews about Maalox during pregnancy claimed that the drug eliminates the problem quickly and without harm for the future kid. My gynecologist approved the medicine, so I did not doubt the course of Maalox.

Heartborn really disappeared, but toxicosis appeared. I noticed that I was sick of alone the smell of medicine. Therefore, I had to drink a strongly diluted suspension right before the departure to sleep. It is likely that a similar reaction is purely individual, but I recommend taking the future mammy to take only one bag of suspension "on the sample", and only then spend money on a complete bottle. "

Petrova Irina, 27 years

"There is no way to dine normally at work, so right in the office I often had heartburn, pain in the stomach. Initially, I tried to drink Maalox in tablets, but the effect had to wait until 20 minutes. Then, in the pharmacy, I was recommended by the same Maalox, but the format of the suspension. Of course, I did not take a whole bottle (inconveniently keep in the office), but mini-poems were quite arranged. Very convenient format, no need to measure the desired dose, and positive effect It appears in 5 minutes after the reception. Now I buy only Maalox minox, but still plan to go to home dinners in the near future. "

Kryachko Victor, 32 years old

Pharmacological features

Maalox is a complex drug with a complex of properties. The drug, like food soda, contributes to the neutralization of hydrochloric acid, reduces its concentration without a secondary increase in secretion.

In this case, a protective layer is created on the gastric mucosa, which reduces the likelihood of irritating effects of food. It stimulates the formation of bile, and contributes to its removal into the duodenum, which increases the efficiency of the digestive process and purifies the liver from excess bile.

Due to the ability to adsorb substances, Maalox reduces the level of harmful substances accumulated in the intestine. The windy properties of the drug helps to get rid of intestinal gases.

Pharmacological features Maalox suspensions, aimed at improving the efficiency of the digestive process, cleaning the intestines, as well as preventing the destruction of the cells of its mucous membrane.
