Why can't I buy Ulgastran suspension in any pharmacy? Is it known when it will be available for sale?

For @Ma łgosia: Alugastrin is an antacid that neutralizes excess hydrochloric acid in gastric juice.
Thank you. PPI drugs do not help me - I have non-acid reflux. Does Alugastrin suspension help with non-acid reflux?

In pharmacies, there are no substitutes that would have exactly the same effect as Ulgastran. If you suffer from reflux, you can use drugs from the group of proton pump inhibitors, e.g. based on pantoprazole m.in. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/19739/controloc-control-tabletki/apteki/w-polsce price range is visible in the "package" window after the dose of the drug. By entering the name of the city in the "location" window below, pharmacies that have the drug in stock will be displayed. If a pharmacy provides price information, it will appear on the right next to the pharmacy name. As for online pharmacies, these facilities provide information about the price of medicines and what you can check here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/19739/controloc-control-tabletki/apteka-internetowa?pvid=148033 About drugs used to treat reflux symptoms, we write here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/zgaga
Thank you for your prompt reply. Can you recommend me any other drug that will work like a Ulgastran suspension? - I was saved for a strong reflux. Would Artecholin N, for example, be helpful? Or Alugastrin suspension? How can you check the price range of medicines in a given city?
