Barcroft Magnesium Hydroxide Pastes and Gels provide the consistent quality required for pharmaceutical use. Magnesium hydroxide can be used as a digestive aid active (milk of magnesia) and comes in varying viscosities to aid in formulation satisfaction.
Flogel is a pumpable magnesium hydroxide suspension. Because of its very low viscosity, Flogel requires the use of suspending agents. Develop a cost-effective antacid suspension with a pleasant mouthfeel using Flogel together with LV13.
LVM magnesium paste is recommended for extra-strength products where a suspending agent is employed.
Type M magnesium paste is ideally suited for regular-strength antacid suspensions or milk of magnesia (MoM) laxatives. Due to its high viscosity, Type M yields a thick and creamy product without the need for additional thickeners or suspending agents. Type M can be used with Visco9, aluminum hydroxide paste, to create a cost-effective suspension with a pleasant mouthfeel.
