✔️ Administration of Algicid Plus Chewable Tablet
- Take the medication after meals and at bedtime.
✔️ How does Algicid Plus Chewable Tablet work?
- Antacids: Calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate neutralize excess stomach acid, providing quick relief from indigestion and heartburn.
- Alginate: Sodium alginate forms a protective barrier (raft) on top of the stomach contents, which reduces gastroesophageal reflux and soothes the esophagus.
✔️ Side Effects of Algicid Plus Chewable Tablet
- Allergic reactions such as urticaria, bronchospasm, anaphylactic or anaphylactoid reactions.
- Ingestion of large amounts may cause alkalosis, hypercalcemia, acid rebound, milk-alkali syndrome, or constipation.
✔️ Quick Suggestions:
- Use with caution in individuals on a sodium-restricted diet, those with hypercalcemia, nephrocalcinosis, or recurrent calcium-containing renal calculi.
- Reduced efficacy with very low levels of gastric acid.
- Antacid use may mask symptoms of internal bleeding secondary to NSAID use.
- Not recommended for children under 12 years.
✔️ Pharmacology
The action is physical rather than systemic. Upon ingestion, it rapidly reacts with gastric acid to form a raft of alginic acid gel with a near-neutral pH. This gel floats on top of the stomach contents, impeding gastro-esophageal reflux for up to 4 hours. In severe cases, the raft may be refluxed into the esophagus, protecting it from acidic and bile reflux.
✔️ Dosage & Administration of Algicid Plus Chewable Tablet
- Adults and children over 12 years: 10-20 mL after meals and at bedtime, up to 4 times a day (for suspension); 2-4 chewable tablets after meals and at bedtime, up to 4 times daily.
- Children 6-12 years: 5-10 mL after meals and at bedtime, up to 4 times a day.
- Children under 6 years: Not recommended.
- Elderly: No dose adjustments are required.
Overdosage symptoms may include abdominal distension, and symptomatic treatment should be given.
✔️ Interaction
A 2-hour gap is recommended between taking Algicid Plus and medications like tetracyclines, digoxin, fluoroquinolone, iron salts, and others.
✔️ Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to any active ingredient or excipients.
✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation
Safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding based on clinical data.
✔️ Precautions & Warnings
Contains sodium and calcium, which should be considered in patients with congestive cardiac failure, renal impairment, hypercalcemia, or those on a restricted salt diet.
✔️ Storage:
Store below 30°C in a dry place away from light. Do not refrigerate or freeze. Keep out of reach of children.
