Almag

Almag

Almag is an inorganic salt used as an antacid. It is the main compound that acts by neutralizing hydrochloric acid in gastric secretions. The subsequent increase in pH may inhibit the action of pepsin. An increase in the content of bicarbonate ions and prostaglandins can also have a cytoprotective effect.

An indication is a term used to refer to a list of conditions, symptoms, or diseases for which a medication is prescribed or used by a patient. For example, acetaminophen or paracetamol is used by the patient for fever, or the doctor prescribes it for headaches or body aches. Now fever, headache, and body aches are all signs of paracetamol. The patient should be aware of the indications of medications used for common conditions, because they can be taken without a prescription at the pharmacy.

Almag is a vaccine that helps prevent hepatitis A and typhoid fever

fever. Hepatitis A is an infectious liver disease caused by a virus.

Typhoid fever is an infectious disease caused by bacteria called typhoid fever.

Salmonella.

This vaccine should only be given to adults and adolescents aged 15 years

years and above.
