Details
Indications for useMaalox RefluRapid is a mechanical action medical device based on Sodium Alginate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate and calcium carbonate, formulated to perform 3 synergistic actions: block acid reflux, reduce heartburn and protect the esophageal mucosa.Maalox RefluRapid medical device is indicated for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux in order to reduce the symptoms related to it, such as: heartburn, gastric heartburn in pregnancy, reflux esophagitis, acid regurgitation, indigestion, night-time reflux symptoms, cough and laryngopharyngeal inflammation.How it worksMaalox RefluRapid medical device, thanks to the action of Sodium Alginate and the carbonates it contains, can start to act in 3 minutes. Upon contact with stomach acid, sodium alginate reacts to form a gel, while the carbonates release carbon dioxide, allowing the gel to float and form a plug that mechanically prevents gastric juices from rising into the esophagus. The presence of bicarbonate also helps reduce stomach hyperacidity. Thanks to its unique properties, it acts as a barrier that protects the esophageal mucosa from acid attack, promoting its regeneration and helping prevent the risk of reflux esophagitis relapses. Its formulation, characterized by a specific balance between sodium alginate and carbonates, promotes rapid action.
