About Magnesium Hydroxide Paste USP

We are offering Magnesium Hydroxide Paste, which is basically a medication utilized to treat problems related to stomach acid, such as heartburn, indigestion, and acid reflux. This generally works by neutralizing stomach acid and reducing the symptoms of these conditions. The Magnesium Hydroxide Paste is applied directly to the affected area, usually in the form of a cream or gel, and is absorbed through the skin to react with the stomach acid. Magnesium hydroxide paste is also utilized as an antacid and laxative. Apart from that, it is commonly found under brand names such as Maalox and Mylanta.
