Riflux Forte Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called antacids used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset. The stomach is usually protected from acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets eroded, which leads to complications like acidity and heartburn.
Riflux Forte Tablet contains Aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide and dimethicone. Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide work by neutralising excess stomach acid. Dimethicone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract.
In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as constipation, loss of appetite, weakness and diarrhoea. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
Inform your doctor before taking Riflux Forte Tablet if you have low phosphate levels, high magnesium levels, kidney or liver problems. Consult your doctor before taking Riflux Forte Tablet if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Riflux Forte Tablet should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Riflux Forte Tablet as it could lead to increased acidity.

Drug-Drug Interactions: Riflux Forte Tablet may interact with pain killers (aspirin), antibiotics (ciprofloxacin), anti-asthma (albuterol, ipratropium), anti-diabetic (glipizide), and vitamins (ascorbic acid, ergocalciferol, cholecalciferol).
Drug-Food Interactions: Avoid alcohol intake as it leads to increased stomach acid production, thereby increasing acidity and heartburn.
Drug-Disease Interactions: Inform your doctor if you have constipation, inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal obstruction disorder, and renal dysfunction.
The stomach is usually protected from the acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets eroded, which leads to complications like acidity. Due to this, acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms include heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing. Indigestion is the feeling of fullness. It occurs due to slow gastric emptying. Symptoms include stomach pain, bloating, heartburn, nausea and vomiting.
