Relcer Gel is an antacid and anti-flatulent medication designed to alleviate symptoms associated with excess stomach acid, such as heartburn, indigestion, and gas-related discomfort. It combines several active ingredients that work synergistically to provide relief.
Key Ingredients
- Aluminium Hydroxide: Neutralizes stomach acid, providing relief from heartburn and acid indigestion.
- Magnesium Hydroxide: Works alongside aluminium hydroxide to enhance antacid effects and prevent constipation.
- Simethicone: An anti-foaming agent that helps reduce gas bubbles, alleviating bloating and discomfort.
- Deglycyrrhizinated Liquorice: Supports the healing of the stomach lining and may help protect against ulcers.
Indications
Relcer Gel is indicated for:
- Heartburn: Provides relief from the burning sensation caused by acid reflux.
