Description
Several alginate-antacid combination products are available across African markets, but their raft-forming ability and antacid effectiveness vary widely. A 2022 in vitro study evaluated a new formulation against four commonly used formulations, comparing their performance in raft formation and acid neutralization. It was found that the new formulation stood out, demonstrating superior results by maintaining a pH above 7 for over 210 minutes, longer than any other product tested. The full study details and key findings were published in the Tropical Journal of Pharmaceutical Research now available to read on Shalina MedSpace.
