RACIRAFT SYP PCS

About

RACIRAFT SYP PCS is an oral suspension primarily used for the symptomatic relief of acid reflux, heartburn, and indigestion. Its formulation typically combines an alginate with antacids, creating a dual-action mechanism. Upon ingestion, the alginate component reacts with stomach acid to form a protective raft-like barrier on top of the stomach contents. This physical barrier helps to prevent the reflux of acid, pepsin, and bile into the esophagus, thereby alleviating the burning sensation and discomfort associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Concurrently, the antacid components work to neutralize existing stomach acid, providing immediate relief from acidity. This combination offers both rapid symptom relief and sustained protection against reflux episodes. RACIRAFT SYP PCS is particularly effective after meals and at bedtime, when reflux symptoms are often exacerbated, ensuring comfort and reducing esophageal irritation. It is a non-systemic treatment, meaning it primarily acts within the gastrointestinal tract without being significantly absorbed into the bloodstream.
