Dijex MP Mixed Fruit Suspension Benefits

• Fast symptomatic relief by neutralizing excess stomach acid
• Added simethicone helps break up trapped gas and reduce bloating
• Pleasant mixed fruit flavor suitable for regular OTC use
• Balanced formula moderates the bowel effects of its two antacid ingredients

What Experts Say

Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide are neutralizing antacids that directly raise stomach pH, giving quick relief from acid discomfort rather than reducing acid production over time. Pairing the two is a common formulation strategy, since magnesium hydroxide tends to loosen stools while aluminium hydroxide tends to cause constipation, balancing out the bowel effect for most people.

Simethicone does not neutralize acid at all. Instead, it lowers the surface tension of small gas bubbles trapped in the digestive tract, letting them combine into larger bubbles that pass more easily. This is why the suspension addresses both burning discomfort and the separate problem of bloating after a heavy or spicy meal.

This combination suits everyday, occasional indigestion rather than conditions needing sustained acid suppression, such as ulcers, where a different class of medicine works better. Its effect is also short-lived compared with acid-reducing tablets, so relief needs repeating after meals. Spacing it away from other oral medicines matters, since it can reduce their absorption.
