Product Introduction:
- Ancool Syrup is a combination medication used to relieve symptoms associated with gastrointestinal conditions such as acid indigestion, heartburn, and gas. It contains four active ingredients: Aluminium Hydroxide (300mg/5ml), Milk of Magnesia (150mg/5ml), Simethicone (125mg/5ml), and Oxetacaine (10mg/5ml). This formulation aims to provide relief from acidity, gas discomfort, and related symptoms.
Ancool Syrup is taken without food in a dose and duration as advised by the doctor. The dose you are given will depend on your condition and how you respond to the medicine. You should keep taking this medicine for as long as your doctor recommends. If you stop treatment too early your symptoms may come back and your condition may worsen. Let your healthcare team know about all other medications you are taking as some may affect, or be affected by this medicine. Do not take it for more than the recommended duration as long-term administration may have harmful effects on the health.
The most common side effects are diarrhea, constipation, and allergic reaction. These are temporary and usually resolve with time. Contact your doctor straight away if you are at all concerned about any side effects. To overcome constipation, you should add fiber-rich foods in your diet and stay hydrated. Lifestyle modifications like having cold milk and avoiding hot tea, coffee, spicy food or chocolate can help you to get better results.
Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding. You should also tell your doctor if you have any liver diseases so that your doctor can prescribe a suitable dose for you.
