Reflux symptoms can include painful heartburn, indigestion or acid regurgitation. Sodium alginate is a naturally occurring substance that is found in a particular type of seaweed. In the presence of the calcium carbonate it reacts with the acid in the stomach to form a gel.Very rarely some people have experienced an allergic reaction after taking Peptac, such as an itchy rash (urticaria), breathing difficulties due to a narrowing of the airways (bronchospasm) or anaphylaxis.

Peptac is an antacid treatment, used in relieving the symptoms of acid reflux/heartburn. It works by stopping stomach acid from leaving the stomach and entering the food pipe causing pain and discomfort. As Acidex mode of action is physical, overdosage in terms of the alginate content is virtually no hazard. The only consequence is abdominal discomfort which is best treated conservatively. The relatively low concentrations of sodium and calcium carbonate in Acidex would also make serious consequences from overdosage very unlikely.
