Maalox is a brand name antacid containing aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide to neutralize or reduce stomach acid. Maalox helps relieve symptoms of excessive stomach acidity in patients with indigestion, heartburn, gastroesophageal reflux disease, or stomach or duodenal ulcers. In large doses, it can act as a laxative. The trademark is owned by Novartis International AG, and was first used commercially in 1949. Some may find certain Maalox medications, such as Maalox Multi-Action, to be a successful anti-diarrhea treatment due to the aluminum hydroxide content, which in normal situations has a tendency to result in constipation. Maalox may also be used to treat nausea and stomach cramps associated with dyspepsia, diarrhea, or constipation. ==Ingredients== Liquid Maalox contains aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide and simethicone. Maalox Regular Strength chewable tablets contain 600 mg of calcium carbonate whereas Maalox Extra Strength + Anti-Gas tablets contain 1000 mg of calcium carbonate as well as 60 mg of simethicone. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maalox」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
