Description
Dried Aluminium Hydroxide Gel, Magnesium Trisilicate & Peppermint Oil Tablets
Healthy Inc is a specialized global supplier and exporter of balanced antacid-carminative combinations. We provide high-palatability Aluminium Hydroxide & Magnesium Trisilicate Tablets (Chewable), sourced from WHO–GMP certified solid dosage facilities. This “Gastric Buffer” is a top export to OTC pharmacies, gastroenterology clinics, and government health ministries in Africa, LATAM, and Southeast Asia, serving as the classic, cost-effective therapy for Hyperacidity, Dyspepsia, and Flatulence.
Product Overview
This formulation contains a strategic combination of a rapid-acting antacid, a prolonged-acting antacid/protectant, and a carminative agent.
The “Triple-Action” Specialist:
- Mechanism (Neutralization):
- Aluminium Hydroxide: Reacts slowly with gastric hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form aluminium chloride and water. It raises the stomach pH to ~4.0, inactivating the proteolytic enzyme pepsin (which damages the stomach lining).
- Magnesium Trisilicate: A slow-acting antacid. It reacts with acid to form Magnesium Chloride and Hydrated Silica (Silicon Dioxide). This gelatinous silica coats the stomach lining and ulcer craters, providing a physical “cytoprotective” barrier against further acid attack.
- Balanced Bowel Function: Aluminium salts cause constipation, while Magnesium salts cause diarrhea (laxative effect). By combining them in this specific ratio, the side effects cancel each other out, ensuring normal bowel movements.
- Carminative Action: Peppermint Oil acts as a natural carminative. It relaxes the smooth muscle of the GI tract and reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles, facilitating the expulsion of trapped gas (burping) and relieving bloating.
Product Composition & Strength
We supply this product as Chewable Tablets (typically White, Round, Mint-Flavored). The chewable format is essential to increase the surface area for rapid acid neutralization.

Manufacturing Authority
Marketed and Distributed by Healthy Inc from WHO-GMP & ISO 9001:2015 certified units.
- Mouthfeel Engineering: Magnesium Trisilicate can be naturally “gritty” or “sandy.” We use micronized grades and specific binders to ensure the tablet chews down to a smooth, creamy paste without an unpleasant chalky aftertaste.
- Reactive Stability: Aluminium Hydroxide gel dries out and loses reactivity over time (“aging”). Our manufacturing process stabilizes the gel phase to ensure it retains its acid-neutralizing capacity (ANC) throughout the 2-3 year shelf life.
Therapeutic Indications (Human Use)
Indicated for the symptomatic relief of:
- Hyperacidity: Heartburn, acid regurgitation, and sour stomach.
- Peptic Ulcer Pain: Provides rapid relief from ulcer pain (though not a cure on its own).
- Dyspepsia: Indigestion accompanied by bloating and gas.
- Gastritis: Inflammation of the stomach lining caused by alcohol or spicy food.
Dosage & Administration
Recommended Dosage (Strictly as per Physician):
- Route: Oral.
- Adults: 2 to 4 tablets chewed well.
- Frequency: Take 20 minutes to 1 hour after meals and at bedtime. (Taking it on an empty stomach clears it too fast; taking after food prolongs the effect to 3-4 hours).
- Administration (CRITICAL): Must be chewed thoroughly before swallowing. Follow with a glass of water/milk. Do not swallow whole.
Safety Warnings:
- Renal Failure (CONTRAINDICATION): Patients with kidney failure cannot excrete Aluminium and Magnesium. Accumulation can lead to Dialysis Dementia (Aluminium toxicity) or Cardiac Arrhythmias (Hypermagnesemia). Avoid in renal dialysis patients.
- Drug Interactions (Chelation): Antacids bind to many drugs, preventing their absorption. Separate doses by 2 hours from: Tetracyclines, Ciprofloxacin, Iron supplements, and Digoxin.
- Phosphate Depletion: Long-term high doses of Aluminium Hydroxide bind dietary phosphate, potentially causing muscle weakness and bone loss (osteomalacia).
