Gazio Suspension 170 ml

Question 1

How does Gazio Suspension 170 ml work?

Accepted Answer

Gazio Suspension 170 ml is a combination of two drugs: Magaldrate (antacid) and Simethicone (anti-flatulent). Magaldrate works by neutralising excess stomach acid. Simethicone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitates the expulsion of gas through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract.

Question 2

Can I take Gazio Suspension 170 ml for longer durations?

Question 3

Does Gazio Suspension 170 ml cause diarrhoea?

Accepted Answer

Diarrhoea might be a side-effect of Gazio Suspension 170 ml. Drink lots of fluids and eat food rich in fibre if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you experience excess diarrhoea consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.

Question 4

Can I lie down after having meals?

Accepted Answer

Avoid lying down immediately after meals to prevent acidity. Raise the head of the bed 10-20cm by putting a pillow so that the head and chest are above the waist. This prevents acid reflux.
