Mylanta (aluminum hydroxide / magnesium hydroxide / simethicone) for Indigestion "Been using Mylanta since Maalox factory shutdown. It works as well as Maalox as it contains the same ingredients and potency. Several family members also use it. Mild taste. It really does work well and would recommend to anyone needing such a product."

Gelusil (aluminum hydroxide / magnesium hydroxide / simethicone) for GERD "Been using this for more than 20 years and is an excellent emergency use medication for any episode. I had no side effects and it was originally suggested by my gastroenterologist. For some reason, they are no longer being manufactured."

Maalox (aluminum hydroxide / magnesium hydroxide / simethicone) for Indigestion "I had Acute severe epigastric pain and Maalox worked within minutes. I was given this mixed with lidocaine in the ER due to undiagnosed severe stomach pain. While my tongue felt weird, my pain went away in minutes. Please note that this is generally not over the counter or a prescription, my PCP wasn't able to prescribe it."
