Relcer has antacid activity, and also eliminates excess gas formation inside the gastrointestinal tract.

The drug is a combination of carminative compounds and salts, due to which it neutralizes the effect of free gastric hydrochloric acid with high efficiency, and also weakens the digestive activity of gastric juice. In this case, the drug does not lead to a secondary potentiation of the secretion of gastric juice; it has an enveloping and adsorbing effect and reduces the negative effect of various damaging factors on the gastric mucosa.

At the same time, it helps heal ulcers that appear inside the gastrointestinal tract and weakens intestinal swelling.

Pharmacodynamics

The influence of the drug develops in connection with the activity of its constituent active ingredients. Some of these antacids include magnesium and aluminum hydroxides, dehydrated licorice, and simethicone.

Hydroxides Mg and Al can neutralize the indices of gastric pH. At the same time, they have an enveloping and adsorbing effect, as well as eliminate pain arising in the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract.

Simethicone is an inert element with surface activity, the basis of which is silicon, which has a defoaming effect. Due to the physical weakening of the surface tension, the elimination of gas bubbles that form inside the intestines during swelling occurs. The gas released at the same time is absorbed or removed naturally.

The de-glycated licorice has a protective function in relation to the gastric mucosa, helping to restore its cells. Along with this component has antispasmodic activity.

Interactions with other drugs

Relcer can adsorb individual active elements of other drugs, while reducing their absorption rate. Among these drugs are chlorpromazine, digoxin with tetracyclines, indomethacin and isoniazid with phenytoin. In addition, this includes β-adrenergic blockers, salicylates, diflunizal with histamine H2 blockers and quinolones (such as ofloxacin with greploxacin, norfloxacin with enoxacin, ciprofloxacin, etc.). In addition to them, rifampicin, fexofenadine, pivampicillin, azithromycin barbiturates, dipyridamole and cefpodoxime with indirect anticoagulants, as well as quinidine, lithium and iron medicines, and zalcitabine are on the list. Also here ketoconazole, mexiletine with lansoprazole and anthropodesoxycholic bile acid with UDCA.

The combination with enteric drugs may increase the rate of irritation and disturbance of the gastrointestinal tract due to an increase in alkaline indicators of gastric juice.

The combination with m-holinoblokatorami inhibits the process of gastric emptying, and also potentiates and prolongs the effect of the drug.

It is necessary to observe the 1-2-hour interval between the intake of Reltser and other medicinal substances.
