Ricid Syrup

Ricid Syrup is a combined medication used to treat acidity, stomach
ulcers, and bloating by neutralizing excess stomach acid and aiding in
the release of gas. The dosage and duration of Ricid Syrup should be
determined by your doctor, based on your condition and response to
treatment. It is important to continue taking the medication for the
full recommended period to prevent symptoms from returning or worsening.
Inform your healthcare provider about all other medications you are
taking, as interactions may occur. Common side effects include a chalky
taste, diarrhea, and constipation, which are usually temporary. Seek
medical attention if you experience concerning side effects. To address
constipation, incorporate fiber-rich foods into your diet and ensure you
are adequately hydrated. Prior to taking Ricid Syrup, inform your doctor
if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, breastfeeding, or have kidney
or liver issues, so they can adjust the dosage accordingly.

Ricid Syrup contains two medications: Magaldrate and simethicone. Magaldrate works by neutralizing excess stomach acid, while simethicone helps break down gas bubbles and facilitate the passage of gas. Together, these ingredients help provide relief from symptoms associated with excess stomach acid and gas.
