Magnesie Calcinee SABA 400 mg (Magnesium Hydroxide Suspension)

Magnesie Calcinee SABA 400 mg is a magnesium hydroxide-based preparation supplied as a powder to be reconstituted into an oral suspension. It is commonly used for the symptomatic relief of acid related stomach discomfort and for the short-term treatment of constipation.

Magnesium hydroxide acts locally in the stomach to neutralize excess gastric acid, helping relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and dyspepsia. In the intestine, it works as an osmotic laxative by drawing water into the bowel, softening stools and promoting bowel movement.

This dual action makes Magnesie Calcinee SABA 400 mg suitable for patients who require both antacid and mild laxative effects under medical guidance.
