Maalox Suspension provides fast acting relief of heartburn, gas, upset stomach, nausea, diarrhoea and cramps due to diarrhoea.
Maalox Suspension provides relief of moderate symptoms of burning sensation in the stomach or chest area with accompanying bloating and/or gas pain that usually occurs after a meal. Maalox Suspension is an antacid suspension that provides fast, effective relief in two ways. An antacid neutralises excess stomach acid and an anti-gas ingredient reduces gas pain and pressure. Maalox Suspension is a creamy suspension, with a great tasting flavour and a pleasant aftertaste.
