Introduction
BICARCID 500 Tablet is an alkalizing agent that is used in the management of metabolic acidosis, promotion of gastric, systemic, and urinary alkalinization and used as a replacement therapy in severe diarrhea. It contains sodium bicarbonate as the active ingredient. Sodium Bicarbonate works by increasing the pH of blood and urine, thereby correcting metabolic acidosis (high levels of acid in the blood). In case of excessive fluid loss (such as in diarrhea), it works by replenishing salt and electrolyte levels. Take BICARCID 500 Tablet as advised by your doctor. Swallow the tablet with a glass of water and do not crush or chew the tablet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dosage. KEY COMPOSITION Sodium Bicarbonate
