  • Drug interactions

    Because antiacids can affect the absorption of many drugs depending on the degree of acidity or alkalinity (anti-inflammatories, cimetidine, iron, etc.), it is recommended to wait 1 to 2 hours between each intake. In particular, a substantial reduction in the absorption of tetracyclines and quinolone derivatives (ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and norfloxacin) has been observed with the use of antioxi- dants.
    The simultaneous intake of antacids containing aluminum or acid drinks (fruit juice, wine, etc.) or effervescent tablets (with citric or tartaric acid), increases the intestinal absorption of aluminum.
