A member asked:
Does carafate (sucralfate) heal damage caused by chronic acid reflux? if i take this, how can i prevent aluminum toxicity?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't need to worry: about aluminum if you have normal renal function as will be excreted through your kidneys. Only take the recommended dose of carafate (sucralfate).
