Macralfate-O Suspension Sugar Free

Macralfate-O Suspension Sugar Free

Macralfate-O Suspension Sugar Free is a combination medicine formulated to provide relief from acidity, ulcers, gastritis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It contains Sucralfate and Oxetacaine, where Sucralfate forms a protective barrier over ulcers and erosions in the stomach lining, while Oxetacaine acts as a local anesthetic to relieve pain and burning sensation. This dual-action therapy helps in faster healing of ulcers and provides immediate soothing from acid-related discomfort. Being sugar-free, it is safe for diabetic patients and individuals avoiding added sugar. The suspension form ensures easy consumption, quick action, and long-lasting protection. Doctors commonly prescribe this medicine for patients suffering from peptic ulcers, stomach irritation, and severe acid reflux. Regular use as advised by a healthcare professional helps prevent recurrence and improves digestive comfort.
