The drug DEFLATINE contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Calcium carbonate
UNII H0G9379FGK - CALCIUM CARBONATE
|
|
Calcium carbonate releases, in a pH-dependent manner, calcium ions in the stomach. Calcium carbonate is widely used as antacid and extensively used as a dietary supplement. |
|
2
Magnesium carbonate
UNII 0E53J927NA - MAGNESIUM CARBONATE
|
|
Magnesium carbonate, MgCO3 (archaic name magnesia alba), is an inorganic salt. The most common magnesium carbonate forms are the anhydrous salt called magnesite (MgCO3) and the di, tri, and pentahydrates known as barringtonite (MgCO3·2 H2O), nesquehonite (MgCO3·3 H2O), and lansfordite (MgCO3·5 H2O), respectively. The primary use of magnesium carbonate is the production of magnesium oxide by calcining. |
|
3
Simethicone
UNII 92RU3N3Y1O - DIMETHICONE
|
|
Simethicone is a chemically inert, non-systemic gastric defoaming agent that works by altering the elasticity of interfaces of mucus-embedded bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract. The gas bubbles are thus broken down or coalesced and in this form gas is more easily eliminated through eructation or passing flatus. |
