Indications & Clinical Uses

Neutricid is an antacid used to manage conditions related to excess gastric acidity.

  • Heartburn: provides rapid relief of burning sensation in the chest caused by acid reflux.
  • Acid indigestion: reduces discomfort and bloating associated with dyspepsia.
  • Gastric hyperacidity: lowers gastric pH to alleviate persistent acid overproduction.

How It Works

  • Neutricid contains hydrated aluminium oxide, aluminium phosphate and magnesium hydroxide, which act as alkaline salts. After oral ingestion they dissociate in the stomach, releasing aluminium and magnesium ions that react with hydrochloric acid to form neutral salts and water, thereby raising gastric pH. The increased pH reduces acid‑mediated irritation of the gastric and esophageal mucosa.

Side Effects

Neutricid may cause adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects

  • Constipation: reduced bowel motility leading to hard stools.
  • Diarrhoea: loose stools due to the magnesium component.
  • Nausea: mild stomach discomfort.
  • Abdominal bloating: feeling of fullness or gas.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Hypermagnesemia: elevated magnesium levels, especially in renal impairment.
  • Aluminium toxicity: accumulation causing neurological symptoms.
  • Severe allergic reaction: rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
  • Electrolyte imbalance: abnormal serum levels of calcium or phosphate.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Neutricid, certain precautions should be observed to minimise risks.

  • Renal impairment: use with caution as magnesium excretion may be reduced.
  • Chronic constipation: monitor for worsening symptoms due to aluminium content.
  • Elderly patients: increased susceptibility to electrolyte disturbances.
  • Concomitant antacids: avoid simultaneous use to prevent excessive alkalinity.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: consult a healthcare professional before use.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and heat.

Avoid Interactions

Neutricid can interact with other medicines, affecting their absorption or action.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Tetracycline antibiotics: reduced absorption leading to decreased efficacy.
  • Iron supplements: chelation may lower iron uptake.
  • Digoxin: increased serum levels due to altered gastric pH.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Warfarin: potential change in anticoagulant effect.
  • Levothyroxine: altered absorption requiring dose adjustment.
  • Proton pump inhibitors: additive acid‑suppression may affect electrolyte balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Neutricid is an over‑the‑counter antacid indicated for the temporary relief of heartburn, acid indigestion and gastric hyperacidity. It works by neutralising excess stomach acid, helping to alleviate the burning sensation in the chest and discomfort in the upper abdomen associated with these conditions.

Aluminium oxide (hydrated) acts as an alkaline salt. When it reaches the acidic environment of the stomach, it reacts with hydrochloric acid to form neutral salts and water, thereby raising the gastric pH. This reduction in acidity lessens irritation of the stomach lining and eases symptoms of reflux.

The appropriate dose of Neutricid is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s age, severity of symptoms and overall health status. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and the product label, and should not exceed the recommended amount without medical advice.

Safety data for Neutricid in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should consult their physician before using the product to weigh potential benefits against any possible risks to the fetus or infant.

To order Neutricid, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. GNH India supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, and will request verification of trade or institutional credentials before providing pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Neutricid combines aluminium‑based and magnesium‑based compounds, offering a balanced acid‑neutralising effect while reducing the likelihood of constipation (common with aluminium alone) or diarrhoea (common with magnesium alone). Compared with single‑ingredient antacids, it provides broader symptom control with a lower incidence of extreme gastrointestinal side effects.

Neutricid should be stored at room temperature, ideally below 25 °C. Keep the product in its original packaging, protect it from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain stability and potency throughout its shelf life.

Neutricid is taken orally, usually with a glass of water. It can be taken after meals or at the onset of symptoms, as directed by a healthcare professional. Swallow the tablet or liquid form whole; do not crush or chew unless the product label specifically permits it.

Serious risks, though rare, include hypermagnesemia in patients with renal impairment, aluminium toxicity that may affect the nervous system, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, and significant electrolyte disturbances. Patients experiencing unusual symptoms should seek medical attention promptly.

Neutricid should be avoided by individuals with known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients, those with severe renal failure, and patients who are already receiving high doses of other aluminium‑ or magnesium‑containing antacids. Consultation with a healthcare provider is essential before use in these situations.
