    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Pharmacology
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Antacids are commonly used during labor to reduce gastric acidity.
    • Ensuring patient comfort and minimizing side effects like nausea and vomiting are crucial considerations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the palatability and gastrointestinal side effect profiles of Andursil and Magnesium Trisilicate Co in laboring patients.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of these antacids in managing gastric volume and pH post-delivery.

    Main Methods:

    • A randomized controlled trial involving 1106 laboring patients.
    • Patients were allocated to receive either Andursil or Magnesium Trisilicate Co.
    • Gastric volume and pH were measured after delivery following stomach emptying.

    Main Results:

    • Andursil was reported as more palatable by patients compared to Magnesium Trisilicate Co.
    • The incidence of nausea and vomiting was comparable between the two treatment groups.
    • Data on gastric volume and pH were collected and summarized for 1106 patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Andursil offers a palatability advantage over Magnesium Trisilicate Co for laboring patients.
    • Both antacids demonstrate similar safety profiles regarding nausea and vomiting.
    • Further research may explore differences in gastric acid suppression efficacy.
