Aluminum Hydroxide: neutralizes gastric acidity and increases gastric pH. It binds to intestinal phosphate.
Dimethicone: alters gas bubble surface tension hence disperses and prevents gas pockets in the GI system
Liquorice: is said to increase the mucous coating of the esophageal lining, helping it resist the irritating effects of stomach acid
Magnesium Hydroxide: It promotes bowel evacuation by causing osmotic retention of fluid, which causes the colon to distend with increased peristaltic activity; forms magnesium chloride when reacts with hydrochloric acid; causes water retention in stool, producing laxative effect
