Important safety information

Common side effects

Side effects are usually mild. Aluminium can cause constipation and magnesium can cause loose stools, so the combination often balances out. A chalky taste is common.

Talk to a doctor or pharmacist first

  • People with kidney disease, as aluminium and magnesium can build up in the body
  • Anyone taking other medicines, especially antibiotics, iron, thyroid medicine or some heart medicines, as antacids can reduce their absorption
  • Anyone whose indigestion lasts for weeks or keeps returning
  • People with unexplained weight loss, difficulty swallowing, repeated vomiting or black stools
  • Pregnant women and parents of young children

Warnings

  • Leave a gap between this antacid and other medicines. Ask your pharmacist how long to wait.
  • Seek medical help urgently for vomiting blood, black or tarry stools, or severe stomach pain.
  • Do not use it regularly for a long time without medical advice; ongoing symptoms need to be checked.
  • Chest pain that feels like heartburn can sometimes be a heart problem. Get urgent help if it spreads to the arm or jaw or comes with breathlessness or sweating.

Questions people ask

What does simethicone do?

Simethicone helps small gas bubbles in the stomach and gut join together so they can be passed more easily. It is not absorbed into the body.

Is an antacid the same as omeprazole?

No. Antacids neutralise acid that is already in the stomach and work quickly for short-term relief. Omeprazole reduces how much acid the stomach makes and is used for longer-lasting problems such as reflux or ulcers.

Can I take an antacid with my other medicines?

Antacids can stop some medicines from being absorbed properly. Ask your pharmacist how to time them, and tell your doctor about all the medicines you take.
