Product Information
This medication is used for acidity and heartburn. Sucralfate is a sucrose sulfate-aluminum complex with anti-inflammatory properties. It binds to the ulcer, preventing direct contact of hydrochloric acid (HCl) with the inner mucosa. It also promotes the synthesis of bicarbonate, which functions as an acid buffer. By neutralizing HCl, calcium carbonate acts as an antacid to prevent hyperacidity.
