Multicaine Gel Oral Suspension is taken orally.

The effectiveness of Multicaine Gel Oral Suspension comes from three active ingredients:

• Aluminium Hydroxide (291 mg): This is an antacid which neutralises gastric acid in your stomach. It can also form a protective coating on the stomach lining.

• Magnesium Hydroxide (Milk of Magnesia) (98 mg): Another antacid, it neutralises stomach acid and may also have a laxative effect.

• Oxetacaine (10 mg): This ingredient is a local anaesthetic that numbs the lining of the oesophagus and stomach to relieve pain caused by acid irritation.

These ingredients work together to manage excessive stomach acid symptoms effectively, giving you relief from discomfort.

• Keep Multicaine Gel Oral Suspension at room temperature, ideally between 20-25°C.

• Protect the medicine from extreme heat and freezing temperatures.

• Always ensure the bottle is tightly sealed after use.

• Place it out of sight and reach of children.

• If you're managing heartburn or acid indigestion with Multicaine Gel Oral Suspension, try to avoid foods that trigger these conditions. Common culprits include spicy, fatty, and acidic foods.

• To reduce the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight can put pressure on your abdomen, pushing up your stomach and causing acid to back up into your oesophagus. If you're overweight or obese, work on shedding those extra kilos.
