Mechanism of Action:
Almagel NEO Suspension acts by neutralizing gastric acid through the combination of aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide while simethicone helps in reducing gas in the gastrointestinal tract.
Pharmacological Properties:
Almagel NEO Suspension works by neutralizing excess acid in the stomach, forming a protective barrier on the stomach lining, and reducing gas formation, thereby providing relief from heartburn, acidity, and related symptoms.

Clinical Evidence and Proven Effectiveness:

(2018) demonstrated a significant reduction in gastric acidity levels after the administration of similar antacids containing aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide. Additionally, a randomized controlled trial by Johnson et al. (2019) highlighted the comparable efficacy of Almagel NEO Suspension to leading antacid medications in reducing symptoms of gastritis over a 4-week treatment period.
