What is MGS Aluminum?
Aluminum MGS is a combination of aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide and simethicone drugs.
Aluminum hydroxide is an inorganic salt that is used as an antacid. Its effectiveness is by neutralizing the hydrochloric acid of the digestive juice, as a result, by increasing the pH of the stomach, it inhibits pepsin. It probably has a protective effect by increasing bicarbonate and prostaglandin ions.
Magnesium hydroxide: an inorganic compound used as an antacid or laxative in syrup or tablets.
Simethicone: It is an oral decongestant with a local effect that is not absorbed by the body. It is used in excessive bloating. It is a mixture of polydimethylsiloxane and hydrated silica gel.
Mechanism of effect of MGS aluminum
Aluminum hydroxide: neutralizing stomach acid and creating AlCl3 salt and water and increasing stomach pH.
Magnesium hydroxide: with its osmotic effect and liquid absorption, it increases bowel movement and emptying. It creates magnesium chloride in reaction with acid.
Simethicone: By reducing surface tension, it causes gas bubbles to disappear.
Pharmacodynamics of Aluminum MGS
Aluminum hydroxide: Gastric-peptic diseases are due to the imbalance of protective factors such as mucus, bicarbonate and prostaglandin and harmful factors such as hydrochloric acid, pepsin and Helicobacter pylori. Antacids reduce the activity of pepsin and increase secretion by establishing the acid-base balance. bicarbonate and prostaglandin.
Magnesium Hydroxide: neutralizes hydrochloric acid, as a result, the pH of the stomach increases and deactivates pepsin. It strengthens the mucous barrier of the stomach and increases the contraction of the gastric and esophageal sphincters.
Simethicone: By reducing the surface tension of gas bubbles, it causes them to shrink and reduce bloating. It also inhibits the formation of mucous gas bubbles.
Pharmacokinetics of Aluminum MGS
Aluminum and magnesium hydroxide: the ion absorbed from the digestive system is excreted in the urine, and its insoluble salts are excreted in the intestine through feces.
