Lecicarbon Junior

Sodium hydrogen carbonate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, the active ingredients in Lecicarbon Junior, are antacid and laxative agents presented as a rectal solution for rectal use. They neutralize excess gastric acid and provide a phosphate‑based osmotic effect to relieve heartburn and ease constipation in adults and children as directed by a healthcare professional.

GNH USA supplies Lecicarbon Junior as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Lecicarbon Junior acts on the digestive system to alleviate acid‑related discomfort and promote bowel movements.

Heartburn: rapid neutralisation of gastric acid provides relief of acid reflux symptoms. Constipation: phosphate‑driven osmotic activity draws water into the rectum, facilitating soft stool passage. Acid indigestion: reduces acidity in the stomach, easing discomfort after meals.

Lecicarbon Junior may cause mild to moderate adverse reactions, most of which resolve without intervention.

Common Side Effects: - Mild rectal irritation or burning sensation. - Abdominal cramping or mild pain. - Flatulence or increased gas. - Nausea or mild upset stomach. - Loose stools or mild diarrhea.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe rectal bleeding. - Electrolyte imbalance (e.g., hyperphosphatemia). - Allergic reaction such as rash, itching, or anaphylaxis. - Persistent severe abdominal pain. - Unexplained dizziness or fainting.

Before using Lecicarbon Junior, consider the following safety measures.

Allergy Check: avoid if known hypersensitivity to sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, or formulation excipients. Renal Impairment: use with caution in patients with severe kidney disease due to phosphate load. Electrolyte Monitoring: prolonged use may affect serum electrolytes; monitor as appropriate. Pediatric Use: administer only under medical supervision for children. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: consult a healthcare professional before use. Store at room temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Lecicarbon Junior can influence the absorption or effect of certain medications.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Lithium: altered lithium levels may increase toxicity. - Digoxin: electrolyte shifts can affect digoxin activity. - Warfarin: potential increased bleeding risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Oral antibiotics: changes in gut flora may modify antibiotic efficacy. - Iron supplements: reduced iron absorption when taken concurrently. - Calcium supplements: may diminish antacid effect.
