1. Product Introduction

Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd. is a specialized Manufacturer of Aluminium Hydroxide & Magnesium Trisilicate Tablets in India. This classic Antacid Combination is a staple in gastroenterology for the rapid relief of Heartburn, Acid Indigestion, and Dyspepsia. The formulation is scientifically balanced: Aluminium Hydroxide (which can cause constipation) is combined with Magnesium Trisilicate (which can cause loose stools) to neutralize stomach acid effectively while minimizing bowel side effects.

We offer Contract Manufacturing (Third Party) services for this high-demand OTC and prescription product. Antacid tablets can often taste chalky or gritty. Our WHO-GMP certified facility in Mumbai utilizes advanced Flavor-Masking and Chewable Tablet Technology to produce smooth, pleasant-tasting (Mint/Orange) tablets that dissolve quickly in the mouth for immediate action. Healthy Inc manages the export logistics, supplying pharmacy chains, supermarkets, and government health clinics across Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.

3. Manufacturing Technology

Fast relief with a balanced formula.

• The Manufacturer: Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd.

  • Chewable Matrix: Antacids work best when they have a large surface area. We engineer “Chewable” tablets that break down instantly upon chewing, creating a fine dispersion that coats the stomach lining and neutralizes acid faster than a swallowed pill.

  • Texture Optimization: Magnesium Trisilicate can be gritty. We use Micronized grades and specialized sweeteners (Mannitol/Sorbitol) to create a smooth mouthfeel, ensuring patients don’t feel like they are chewing chalk.

  • Acid Neutralizing Capacity (ANC): We rigorously test every batch to ensure it meets the specific ANC requirements, guaranteeing that each tablet neutralizes a defined milliequivalent (mEq) of acid.

• The Exporter: Healthy Inc

  • Retail Ready: We provide attractive blister packaging and “Pocket Packs” (strips of 4 or 6) designed for OTC counters and convenience stores.

4. Quality Assurance

We adhere to strict Pharmacopoeial standards:

• Disintegration: For chewable tablets, we ensure they break apart easily under light pressure.

• Assay: We confirm the potency of both active ingredients is strictly within 90-110% of the label claim.

• Microbial Limits: We strictly monitor for pathogens to ensure safety.

5. Why Use This Combination?

The perfect balance for a calm stomach.

• Mechanism:

  • Aluminium Hydroxide: A slow-acting antacid that reacts with hydrochloric acid to form Aluminium Chloride and water. It is also an astringent (can cause constipation).

  • Magnesium Trisilicate: A slow-acting antacid that reacts with acid to form Silicon Dioxide (which protects the ulcer crater) and Magnesium Chloride. It creates a gelatinous coating on the stomach lining and has a laxative effect.

• Key Indications:

  • Heartburn (GERD): Burning sensation in the chest caused by acid reflux.

  • Peptic Ulcer: Provides symptomatic relief from ulcer pain.

  • Gastritis: Inflammation of the stomach lining.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: Who manufactures Antacid Tablets?

  A: Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd. manufactures them in India.

• Q: Is it Gelusil?

  A: Gelusil is a brand name (Pfizer). We manufacture the Generic Equivalent, often with the same combination of ingredients.

  A: Yes. For the best results, chew the tablet thoroughly before swallowing and drink a glass of water. This spreads the medicine over your stomach lining.

  A: Wait 2 hours. Antacids can block the absorption of other drugs (especially Iron, Tetracyclines, and Digoxin). Separate the doses.
