Gastrolight

The combined drug provides a long-lasting effect. Antacids contained in the drug neutralize unbound hydrochloric acid in the stomach and do not provoke its secondary hypersecretion. Due to the decrease in the acidity of gastric juice, when using the drug, the peptic activity of the secreted gastric juice decreases. The drug has adsorbent, astringent, enveloping properties that weaken the effect of damaging agents on the mucous membranes of the stomach and esophagus. It is practically not absorbed and does not upset the balance of electrolytes in the body when taken orally in the doses below and does not have a systemic effect.
