Children
Mucogel is not recommended for children under 12 years of age. In young children the use of
magnesium hydroxide can produce hypermagnesemia, especially if they suffer from kidney problems
or dehydration.
Other medicines and Mucogel
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other
medicines.
This is particularly important if you are taking:
- salicylates (such as aspirin)
- tetracycline antibiotics or vitamins, as antacids inhibit their absorption, so they should not be taken
together.
