Aluminium Oxide + Magnesium Trisilicate is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Acid Reflux, Acid indigestion, Bloating, Colic, Flatulence, Gastric Ulcer, Heartburn, Upset stomach
How Aluminium Oxide + Magnesium Trisilicate works
The gelatinous silicon dioxide, formed by the reaction of magnesium trisilicate with gastric contents is said to protect ulcerated mucosal surfaces and favor healing.
Dosage
Aluminium Oxide + Magnesium Trisilicate dosage
Take 2-4 teaspoonful after meals and at bedtime as needed (up to 4 times a day)
Side Effects
Diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting.
Toxicity
Adequate doses of magnesium trisilicate may cause diarrhea due to the action of soluble magnesium salts in the enteric tract. Approx 5% of the magnesium is absorbed.
Precaution
Renal dysfunction, low phosphate diet, prolonged use.
Interaction
Aluminium Hydroxide: Enhanced absorption with citrates or ascorbic acid. Decreases absorption of allopurinol, tetracyclines, quinolones, cephalosporins, biphosphonate derivatives, corticosteroids, cyclosporin, delavirdine, Fe salts, imidazole antifungals, isoniazid, mycophenolate, penicillamine, phosphate supplements, phenytoin, phenothiazines, trientine.
Magnesium Trisilicate: None well documented.
Volume of Distribution
The hydrated silicon dioxide formed in the stomach and passes into the intestinal track.
Elimination Route
The hydrated silicon dioxide formed in the stomach and passes into the intestinal track where, silica can be partly absorbed.
Half Life
16-20 hours
Clearance
Maximum magnesium clearance is directly proportional to creatinine clearance.
Elimination Route
Excreted in the urine.
