Avoid

• Concomitant use with other antacids or acid‑reducing agents, which may cause excessive alkalinity.
• Simultaneous intake of high‑dose calcium supplements, increasing risk of hypercalcemia.
• Use with potassium‑sparing diuretics, as sodium carbonate can affect electrolyte balance.

Use with caution

• Antibiotics such as tetracyclines or fluoroquinolones, because antacids can reduce their absorption.
• Iron or zinc preparations, which may have decreased bioavailability when taken together.
• Certain antifungal agents (e.g., ketoconazole) that require an acidic environment for optimal absorption.
