DIOVOL FORTE GEL MINT 170ML

About

DIOVOL FORTE GEL MINT 170ML is a potent antacid and anti-flatulent suspension formulated to provide rapid and effective relief from symptoms of indigestion, heartburn, sour stomach, and gas. It typically combines active ingredients such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, which are inorganic salts that work by neutralizing excess stomach acid. Aluminum hydroxide tends to cause constipation, while magnesium hydroxide has a laxative effect, often balancing each other out to minimize gastrointestinal side effects.

Additionally, Diovol Forte Gel often includes simethicone, an anti-foaming agent that helps to break down gas bubbles in the digestive tract, thereby reducing bloating, pressure, and discomfort caused by trapped gas. The mint flavor enhances palatability, making it easier to take. This combination provides comprehensive relief by addressing both acid excess and gas accumulation, promoting digestive comfort and well-being. Its gel formulation ensures a coating action on the esophageal and stomach lining, offering soothing relief.
