If you take too much (Overdose):

Larges doses can cause intestinal obstruction. Excessive doses, even normal doses in patient with low- phosphate diets may lead to phosphate depletion accompanied by increased resorption (the process by which something is re-absorbed) and urinary excretion of calcium with the risk of renal rickets (a disorder which leads to softening and weakening of the bones) in the young or bone softening in the older patients. In order to reduce the constipating effects, aluminium hydroxide is often given with a magnesium-containing antacid, such as magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide. Aluminium hydroxide is poorly absorbed and unlikely to cause serious symptoms following overdosage.
