Magaldrate + Simethicone Oral Suspension

Magaldrate and simethicone is a member of the class of medications known as antacids & anti-ulcers, which are prescribed to treat gas, indigestion, heartburn, bloating, and acidity. Normally, a mucus membrane covers the stomach to shield it from the acid. The mucous layer may occasionally dissolve as a result of excessive acid production, which can result in issues like acidity and heartburn. Bloating happens when air or gas fills the abdomen.

The oral suspension combination of MAGALDRATE+SIMETHICONE consists of the antacid Magaldrate and the anti-flatulent Simethicone. Magaldrate functions by balancing off too much stomach acid. Simethicone facilitates gas evacuation through flatus or belching (burping) by lowering the surface tension of gas bubbles. Additionally, it keeps gas from building up and forming in the digestive system.

How To Use Magaldrate & Simethicone Oral Suspension
