Alka Shot Syrup

Alka Shot Syrup contains Potassium Citrate (1100mg/5ml) + Magnesium Citrate (375mg/5ml) + Vitamin B6 (20mg/5ml). Prescription required.

Relief of acidity, heartburn, indigestion, sour stomach and gas; alkaliniser for hyperacidity.

It acts as an antacid/alkaliniser that neutralizes excess stomach acid and raises gastric pH. This reduces irritation of the stomach/food pipe lining and provides symptomatic relief from burning and discomfort.

Oral syrup. Shake well before use. Take the measured dose after meals and/or at bedtime, or as directed by a physician. Do not exceed the recommended dose; keep a gap of at least 2 hours from other medicines.

Nausea, constipation, diarrhoea, stomach cramps, belching, bloating

Use with caution in kidney disease, heart failure, hypertension, or patients on sodium-restricted diets (some antacids contain sodium). Prolonged or excessive use may cause electrolyte imbalance or rebound acidity. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist beyond 7 days, if you have severe abdominal pain, vomiting blood, black stools, or unintended weight loss. Not a substitute for evaluation of chronic GERD/ulcer disease.

May reduce absorption of tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, iron salts, levothyroxine, digoxin; separate by 2–4 hours. If it contains aluminium/magnesium, caution with other magnesium/aluminium products; if it contains sodium bicarbonate/citrate, caution with drugs affected by urine pH.
