Yes. Milk of Magnesia is the generic name for the brand name Maalox. The amount of inactive ingredients might be slightly different because of patents, but the percentage of the active ingredient is the same.

No, but they are both laxatives. Citrate of magnesia is a clear fizzy liquid fizzy, vaguely citrus flavored. One little (about eight ounce) bottle is one dose. It's on the bottom shelf at the drugstore and costs about a dollar. Milk of magnesia is a milky, chalky liquid and about two tablespoons is one dose. It's a couple dollars a bottle and there are about ten or twelve doses per bottle. It has advertisers and press agents.

If you were to take them for constipation, I'd say they are substitutable.Just take them 20 minutes after the meal and 20 minutes before adding anything .And, as always, take 1/2 of what's suggested .ALWAYS.
