Medicine Usages Of Antacid
How to Use
1. Shake the bottle well before use to mix the gel evenly.
2. Measure the dose: Adults typically take 1 – 2 teaspoons (5 – 10 ml) after meals and/or at bedtime or as directed by a healthcare professional.
3. Take orally: Swallow the gel as measured. You can take it with or without food, but many people prefer it after meals to help acid symptoms.
4. Avoid lying down immediately after taking it — staying upright helps it work better.
5. Follow instructions on the label or doctor’s advice for children — dosing can differ by age and medical condition.
? Tip: This is usually for occasional symptom relief, not long-term self-treatment of chronic acid problems. If symptoms persist regularly, talk to a doctor.

How antacid works?
How it works:
• Aluminium Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide neutralise excess stomach acid to reduce burning and irritation.
• Simethicone helps break up gas bubbles so trapped gas can be expelled more easily.
• Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose aids in stabilising the mixture and further supporting acid reduction.
