    A.02.A.F   Antacids in combination with drugs that reduce gassing in the intestine

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Neutralization of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, thereby increasing pH in the gastrointestinal tract. It does not affect the production of hydrochloric acid. Included in the simethicone (a mixture of liquid dimethicones containing highly purified silica) is a surfactant, reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles in the digestive tract, leading to their rupture; The gases released by the decay of the bubbles are absorbed by the walls of the intestine or are excreted by peristalsis, As a result, gas formation in the digestive tract decreases.

    Pharmacokinetics:

    Absorption is low, excreted through the gastrointestinal tract.

    Indications:

    Conditions accompanied by high acidity, as well as in violation of the integrity of the gastrointestinal mucosa and as part of complex therapy.
