How to use Maalox Maximum Strength - Explain Uses,Side Effects,Interactions
Maalox Maximum Strength is used to treat symptoms of too much stomach acid, such as stomach upset, heartburn, and acid indigestion. It can also relieve symptoms of extra gas, such as belching, bloating, and feelings of pressure or discomfort in the stomach. Simethicone helps break up gas bubbles in the gut, while aluminum and magnesium antacids work quickly to lower the acid in the stomach. It works on existing acid in the stomach and does not prevent acid production. It may be used alone or with other medications that lower acid production, such as H2 blockers or proton pump inhibitors. If you are self-treating with this medication, be sure to carefully read the package instructions before starting to use it. And remember, liquid antacids usually work faster and better than tablets or capsules.
