TRICAINE ALMA 200ML

About

TRICAINE ALMA is an oral suspension specifically formulated to deliver rapid and comprehensive relief from symptoms associated with acidity, heartburn, and indigestion. Its unique composition typically combines potent antacids, such as Aluminum Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide, which work synergistically to quickly neutralize excess stomach acid. Complementing this acid-neutralizing action is a local anesthetic, often Oxetacaine, which provides an immediate numbing effect on the irritated esophageal and gastric mucosa. This dual-action approach ensures both symptomatic pain relief and effective acid reduction, making it highly effective in managing discomfort arising from acid reflux, gastritis, esophagitis, and peptic ulcer disease, offering prompt and soothing relief.
