ULTRACID M 200 ML

About

Ultracid M is an advanced antacid and anti-flatulent suspension formulated to address both excess stomach acid and trapped gas. It typically combines the acid-neutralizing power of aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide with the anti-foaming action of simethicone. The antacid components work synergistically to rapidly neutralize gastric acid, providing quick relief from heartburn, acid indigestion, and sour stomach. Simultaneously, simethicone acts locally in the gastrointestinal tract to reduce the surface tension of gas bubbles, causing them to coalesce and be more easily expelled. This dual action makes Ultracid M highly effective in alleviating symptoms such as bloating, pressure, and discomfort caused by excessive flatulence, alongside acid-related symptoms. It offers comprehensive relief for various dyspeptic conditions, improving overall digestive comfort.
