Sucralfate is a complex of aluminium hydroxide and sucrose octasulfate. It dissociates in the acid environment of the stomach to its anionic form, which binds to the ulcer base. This creates a protective barrier to pepsin and bile and inhibits the diffusion of gastric acid.

Ulsanic Tablets Warnings

Warning 1

Aluminium accumulation and toxicity (aluminium osteodystrophy, osteomalacia, encephalopathy) have been described in patients with renal impairment. Blood levels of aluminium, phosphate, calcium, alkalinephosphatase, should be periodically measured in these patients.

Warning 2

Caution is advised when sacralfate is administered in patients with phosphate deficiencies as aluminium binds to phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, inhibiting its absorption.

Warning 3

Occasional cases of bezoar (an insoluble mass formed within the gastric lumen) have been reported in patients taking sucralfate. Bezoars have been described in patients after administration of sucralfate in severely ill patients in Intensive Care Units, and especially in premature infants in whom the use of sucralfate is not recommended, and should be used with caution in patients with delayed gastric emptying or receiving concomitant enteral feeds.
