Uses

This combination works by reducing the symptoms of acid reflux by neutralising the pH of gastric acid in the stomach. Simethicone, an anti-foaming agent, works by breaking up small gas bubbles and combining them into larger ones, making them easier to remove. Simethicone does not prevent gas from forming; rather, it speeds up the rate at which gas is expelled. The pain caused by the gas formation in the stomach is relieved by this combination.
