About Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension

Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension belongs to a group of antacids, antiulcerants used to treat acidity, heartburn, gas, and stomach ulcers. The stomach is usually protected from acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets eroded, which leads to complications like acidity and heartburn. Bloating occurs when the abdomen is filled with gas or air.

Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension is a combination of three drugs: Magaldrate, Simethicone, and Oxetacaine. Magaldrate works by neutralising excess stomach acid. Simethicone works by decreasing gas bubbles' surface tension, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract. Oxetacaine exerts a numbing effect, thereby provides relief from pain due to ulcers or acidic injury in the stomach.

You are advised to take Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. You may experience certain common side-effects such as constipation, diarrhoea, and intestinal pain in some cases. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Avoid taking aluminium and magnesium-containing antacids with Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension . Aluminium-containing antacids and Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension could lead to constipation and intestinal obstruction, whereas magnesium-containing antacids might cause diarrhoea. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Aciloc-S Sugar Free Suspension as it could lead to increased acidity.

Description

Aciloc-S Syrup is an effective solution for treating acidity, heartburn, gas, and stomach ulcers. This sugar-free suspension combines three powerful drugs—magaldrate, simethicone, and oxetacaine—to provide comprehensive relief.

Magaldrate works by neutralising excess stomach acid, while simethicone decreases gas bubbles' surface tension, facilitating their expulsion through flatus or burping. The inclusion of oxetacaine provides a numbing effect that soothes pain caused by ulcers in the stomach. 

It's important to note that this medication should be taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional and is not recommended for children. Additionally, consult your doctor if you have liver or kidney impairments or any concerns regarding the use of this syrup.

Disease/Condition Glossary

The stomach is usually protected from the acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets eroded, which leads to complications like acidity. Due to this, acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms include heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing. Indigestion is the feeling of fullness. It occurs due to slow gastric emptying. Symptoms include stomach pain, bloating, heartburn, nausea and vomiting. Bloating occurs when the abdomen is filled with gas or air. Flatulence occurs when gas collects inside the digestive system.
