Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual needs and medical conditions.

Usage:

AlmaGel Plus (aluminum hydroxide/magnesium hydroxide/dimethicone) is an over-the-counter medication primarily used for the temporary relief of digestive symptoms caused by excess stomach acid and gas. Excess stomach acid occurs when the stomach produces too much stomach acid, which can flow back into the esophagus, causing heartburn, and is associated with indigestion, sour stomach, nausea, and bloating. Excess gas is the accumulation of gas in the digestive tract from swallowed air or the breakdown of food by gut bacteria, leading to bloating, burping, and flatulence.

Mechanism of Action:
AlmaGel Plus (aluminum hydroxide/magnesium hydroxide/dimethicone) works through the combined action of its three active ingredients. Aluminum Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide are antacids that work by chemically neutralizing the hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which raises the gastric pH. This action reduces the burning and irritation associated with acid reflux and heartburn. Dimethicone (also known as Simethicone) is an antiflatulent agent. It works by changing the surface tension of gas bubbles in the stomach and intestines, causing them to collapse. This allows gas to be eliminated more easily through belching or passing gas.

Take AlmaGel Plus exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the package insert that accompanies the medication. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if symptoms persist for more than two weeks, worsen, or are accompanied by severe symptoms, such as fever or vomiting.
