Macralfate O Sugar Free Suspension is used to treat stomach ulcers, acidity and heartburn. It is a combination medicine containing sucralfate (a mucosal protectant) and oxetacaine (a local anaesthetic).
It is also used to manage duodenal ulcers, gastritis and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Take it generally before meals and at bedtime, in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor, and continue it for the full period advised.
Avoid spicy, oily and acidic foods, eat smaller and more frequent meals, and limit tea, coffee and alcohol to help ease acidity and support healing.
Before starting, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take, as sucralfate can affect how some other medicines are absorbed. Report worsening stomach pain, black stools or vomiting of blood promptly. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
