Abicon Max Suspension (500 mg + 213 mg + 325 mg) / 10 ml is an advanced anti-reflux and antacid medication used to relieve symptoms associated with acid reflux, heartburn, and indigestion. It contains a combination of Sodium Alginate, Sodium Bicarbonate, and Calcium Carbonate. These ingredients work together to neutralize stomach acid and form a protective barrier that prevents acid from moving up into the esophagus.

Abicon Max Suspension is commonly used for the management of acid-related gastrointestinal disorders, particularly Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, a condition in which stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus. This backflow can cause burning chest pain, sour taste, and irritation in the throat. The suspension form makes the medicine easy to swallow and allows the active ingredients to work quickly to relieve symptoms.

Indications

Abicon Max Suspension is indicated for the relief and treatment of:

1. Acid reflux and regurgitation.

2. Heartburn, especially after meals or when lying down.

3. Symptoms of Indigestion such as stomach discomfort and bloating.

4. Acid irritation of the esophagus associated with GERD.

5. Post-meal discomfort caused by excessive stomach acid.

It may also be used in patients experiencing reflux symptoms during pregnancy, under medical supervision.

Mechanism of Action

Abicon Max Suspension works through a triple-action mechanism:

1. Formation of a Protective Barrier
Sodium alginate reacts with gastric acid to form a thick gel-like “raft.” This raft floats on the surface of stomach contents and acts as a physical barrier, preventing acid from rising into the esophagus.

2. Neutralization of Stomach Acid
Sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate act as antacids. They neutralize excess hydrochloric acid in the stomach, reducing acidity and relieving irritation.

3. Enhanced Floating Effect
When sodium bicarbonate reacts with stomach acid, carbon dioxide gas is produced. This gas helps the alginate gel float effectively on the stomach contents, strengthening the protective barrier against reflux.

Through these combined actions, the medicine quickly relieves heartburn and protects the esophageal lining from acid damage.
