Stopacid Suspension 200ml is a fast-acting, triple-action medication designed to provide relief from gastrointestinal discomfort. Formulated by Afrab-Chem Limited, a leading Nigerian pharmaceutical company, this suspension is used to manage symptoms associated with hyperacidity and trapped gas.
How Stopacid Works
Stopacid combines two effective antacids—Aluminium Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide—with Simethicone, an anti-foaming agent.
- Neutralizes Acid: The combination of magnesium and aluminium salts works quickly to neutralize excess stomach acid, providing relief from the burning sensation of heartburn and acid indigestion.
- Relieves Bloating: Simethicone helps break down gas bubbles in the stomach and intestines, making it easier to pass gas and reducing the pressure and discomfort of bloating.
Uses of Stopacid Suspension
This medication is commonly recommended for:
- Relief of heartburn and acid indigestion.
- Treatment of symptoms associated with peptic ulcers and gastritis.
- Management of acid reflux (GERD) and reflux oesophagitis.
- Relief of flatulence (gas) and abdominal bloating.
