Medicine Baby Quiz | Will taking aluminum carbonate make people stupid?

Aluminum carbonate is an aluminum-based gastric mucosal protective drug. It forms a protective film on the surface of the gastric mucosa to prevent gastric acid from further irritating the gastric mucosa, thereby protecting the gastric mucosa and preventing the aggravation of gastric mucosal lesions. If you are worried that aluminum will be absorbed by the human body and cause aluminum poisoning, which will affect your intelligence, and thus refuse to use aluminum carbonate, there is no need to do so. In fact, when aluminum carbonate plays a role in neutralizing gastric acid and protecting the gastric mucosa, most of the drug ingredients will not be absorbed by the human body, and a small amount of aluminum that is absorbed will be promptly cleared through the kidneys, and the concentration of aluminum in the serum will generally remain balanced and stable. When used for a long time, the concentration of aluminum in the serum can be monitored regularly.
