How Oxetafate Suspension works

This medicine is prepared from the combination of two medicines: Sucralfate and Oxetacaine. Sucralfate is an effective salt for ulcer treatment. These ulcers form a protective covering of tissue near the stomach, which protects against acid and injury and facilitates healing. Oxetacaine is a local anaesthetic so its numbing effect extends relief from pain caused by ulcers and acid injuries.
