Cidgel is a balanced mixture of two antacids an antiflatulent/antifoaming agent simeticone , magnesium hydroxide which is fast acting and aluminium hydroxide which is a slow acting antacid. Dried aluminum hydroxide forms aluminum chloride and water without stimulating additional acid production, effectively reducing stomach acidity. Magnesium hydroxide also neutralizes acid while promoting bowel movements, which can help with constipation but should be used cautiously in individuals prone to diarrhea or with renal issues.
