Disogel Suspension 200 ml

Disogel Suspension is used to relieve various gastrointestinal symptoms caused by excess stomach acid and gas. The detailed uses of Disogel Suspension include:

• Treatment of acidity and heartburn: Disogel Suspension helps neutralize stomach acid, providing quick relief from acid reflux and burning sensation in the chest or throat.
• Relief from indigestion and upset stomach: Disogel Suspension aids in soothing the stomach lining and improving digestion, especially after heavy meals or dietary disturbances.
• Management of gastritis: Disogel Suspension reduces inflammation in the stomach lining, relieving pain, discomfort, and bloating associated with gastritis.
• Reduction of gas and bloating: Simethicone in Disogel Suspension helps break up gas bubbles in the gut, providing relief from bloating, pressure, and flatulence.

Disogel Suspension belongs to a group of medicines called antacids used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset. Disogel Suspension is a combination of three drugs: Aluminium hydroxide (antacid), magnesium hydroxide (antacid) and dimethicone (antiflatulent). Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide work by neutralising excess stomach acid. Simethicone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract.

• Disogel Suspension should be taken after a meal.
• It is usually taken 1-2 times daily as needed, preferably between meals and at bedtime, or as advised by your doctor.

• Shake the bottle well before each use.
