Magnesium Hydroxide inactive ingredients by manufacturer

Wondering whether your Magnesium Hydroxide has lactose, gluten, soy, a dye or gelatin in it? The medicine is the same, but the fillers, coatings and colors differ from one company to the next. This page shows what each Magnesium Hydroxide product's FDA label lists, so you can find a version that leaves out what you avoid and ask your pharmacist for it by its NDC.

We have read the FDA labels of 77 of the 88 current Magnesium Hydroxide products on the market today, from 51 companies listing it with the FDA, and lined them up side by side. 11 are still being read and will appear on a later visit.

Ask about your bottle

Is there something in your Magnesium Hydroxide? Ask in plain words.

Name the company, strength or the NDC on your bottle and the ingredient you avoid. The answer comes only from the FDA labels on this page.

Answers are drawn from the FDA label data on this page and checked against it. They are not medical advice: confirm with your pharmacist before relying on them.

A product with none of these listed is not certified to be without them: the label says what the manufacturer declared, and the source of a starch or a flavor is often not stated. The companies are the FDA's labelers, which include repackagers and distributors selling another company's product under their own label. The NDC opens the product's own page, with the full label and its inactive-ingredient notes.

At the pharmacy counter

How to use this at the pharmacy counter

  1. Pick the company whose list suits you and copy the NDC from the table. Many pharmacies order from wholesalers that carry several companies' versions and can request a particular one if you ask before the prescription is filled; some buy from one contracted source only, and a few insurance plans cover only certain NDCs, so ask the pharmacist to check.
  2. Treat "does not list" as exactly that. The label is what the manufacturer declared; a flavor or a starch may have an unstated source, and lines change. For celiac disease or a serious allergy, ask the manufacturer's medical information line for a written statement about the lot you have.
  3. Check the bottle each refill. A different company usually means a different shape, color and inactive-ingredient list; the pharmacist can tell you who made it, and the two-NDC comparison shows the difference line by line.
  4. If you need one company's version kept constant, ask your prescriber to write that company or the NDC on the prescription and tell the pharmacy you need it held. Rules vary by state and plan, so confirm with the pharmacist.

Common questions about Magnesium Hydroxide inactive ingredients

Is Magnesium Hydroxide gluten-free?
This page cannot certify any Magnesium Hydroxide product gluten-free; it reports what each label declares. Of the 77 products checked, 5 list a wheat, barley, rye or gluten ingredient (C.B. Fleet (400 mg chewable tablet), Chattem (600 mg chewable tablet), Cvs Pharmacy (400 mg chewable tablet) and Wal-mart Stores (400 mg chewable tablet) and 1 other company), and none lists a starch without a stated source. If you have celiac disease, ask the manufacturer's medical information line for a written gluten statement for the lot you have.
Does Magnesium Hydroxide contain lactose?
No checked Magnesium Hydroxide product lists lactose on its label. The lactose in a tablet or capsule is a small amount, but people with a milk allergy or a strong intolerance often prefer a version that does not list it.
Does Magnesium Hydroxide contain soy?
6 of 77 checked Magnesium Hydroxide products list a soy ingredient (soybean oil or soy lecithin); 71 do not: American Health Packaging (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Amerisourcebergen Drug (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Atlantic Biologicals (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution) and Atlantis Consumer Healthcare (800 mg capsule) and 43 other companies. Soy lecithin is the usual form and the amount is small, but people with a soy allergy often prefer a version that does not list it.
Is there a dye-free Magnesium Hydroxide?
30 of 77 checked Magnesium Hydroxide products list a synthetic dye (an FD&C or D&C colorant); 47 do not: American Health Packaging (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Amerisourcebergen Drug (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Atlantic Biologicals (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution) and Atlantis Consumer Healthcare (800 mg capsule) and 33 other companies. Colorants often differ by strength within one company's line, so compare the lists above strength by strength.
Does Magnesium Hydroxide contain gelatin?
1 of 77 checked Magnesium Hydroxide products list gelatin; 76 do not: American Health Packaging (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Amerisourcebergen Drug (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution), Atlantic Biologicals (1200 mg/15 mL oral solution) and Bayer HealthCare (1200 mg other oral form) and 43 other companies. Gelatin is usually bovine or porcine and the label rarely says which; for kosher, halal or vegetarian needs, ask the manufacturer.
Why do the inactive ingredients differ between manufacturers?
A generic must match the brand's active ingredient, strength, dose form and how it is absorbed; its fillers, binders, coatings and colorants are the manufacturer's own choice. That is why one Magnesium Hydroxide product can list lactose and a dye while another from a different company lists neither.
Can my pharmacy give me a specific manufacturer's version?
Often, if you ask before the prescription is filled: many pharmacies order from wholesalers that carry several companies' versions and can request a particular one. Some pharmacies buy a generic from one contracted source only, and a few insurance plans cover only certain NDCs, so ask the pharmacist to check. Give them the NDC from this page; the company name alone is often enough.
How current is this list?
The products are the ones in the FDA's current NDC directory as of October 5, 2026, and each inactive-ingredient list is the manufacturer's FDA label as our label sync last read it. Formulations change, so check the label on your own bottle and ask your pharmacist if a refill looks different.
