Date of revision WHAT GASTRACID IS USED FOR Gastracid is used for treatment of symptoms resulting from the reflux of acid, bile and pepsin into the oesophagus such as acid regurgitation, heartburn, indigestion and hyperacidity. HOW GASTRACID WORKS Calcium salts neutralize gastric acidity and increases peristalsis in esophagus to provide relief from symptoms of heartburn. Sodium Bicarbonate is an alkalinizing agent which neutralizes stomach acid. Light Magnesium Carbonate reacts with Hydrochloric acid and neutralizes excess acid in stomach. Simethicone functions as a non-systemic surfactant decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract. BEFORE YOU USE GASTRACID _-When you must not use it _ Tell your doctor before using Gastracid if you have hypersensitivity to calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, magnesium carbonate, simethicone or to any of the excipients of the product _-Pregnancy and breastfeeding _ Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant or are breastfeeding. Gastracid Suspension may be used during pregnancy and lactation, but under supervision of a doctor _ _ _-Before you start to use it_ - Use with caution if you • Are below 12 years old • Using other antacid products _-Taking other medicines _ Inform your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine, including any that you get without a prescription from your pharmacy, supermarket or health food shop.

GASTRACID SUSPENSION (CALCIUM CARBONATE 400 MG, SODIUM BICARBONATE 150 MG, LIGHT MAGNESIUM CARBONATE 25 MG, SIMETHICONE 83 MG) NAME AND STRENGTH OF ACTIVE INGREDIENT(S) Each 5 ml contains: Calcium Carbonate ……………………………………………………………….……………..400 mg Sodium Bicarbonate ………………………………………………………………………….….150 mg Light Magnesium carbonate…………….……………………...……………………………...…25 mg Simethicone………………………………………………………...…………………………….83 mg DESCRIPTION: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION White to off white colour suspension with peppermint flavour PHARMACODYNAMICS Calcium salts neutralize gastric acidity resulting in increased gastric and duodenal bulb pH; they additionally inhibit the proteolytic activity of pepsin if the pH is greater than 4 and increase lower esophageal sphincter tone. The calcium released from calcium carbonate is known to increase peristalsis in the esophagus, pushing the acid into the stomach and provide relief from symptoms of heartburn. Sodium bicarbonate is an alkalinizing agent that dissociates to provide bicarbonate ion. Bicarbonate in excess of that needed to buffer hydrogen ions causes systemic alkalinization and when taken orally, sodium bicarbonate neutralises stomach acid. Light Magnesium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach to form carbon dioxide and magnesium chloride thus neutralizing excess acid in the stomach. Simethicone is a silicone compound that functions as a non-systemic surfactant, decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles in the GI tract. This action results in coalescence and dispersion of the gas bubbles allowing their removal from the GI tract as flatulence or belching. Simethicone causes the gas bubbles to accumulate and therefore pass more easily either through the upper GI or lower GI opening.
