Description

Indications

Simethicone is employed to alleviate symptoms associated with excessive gas, including belching, bloating, and sensations of pressure or discomfort in the stomach and gastrointestinal tract. Its mechanism involves disrupting gas bubbles within the gut. It’s essential to scrutinize the ingredients listed on the label, even if you’ve used the product previously.

Uses and Dosage

Simethicone is available in various formulations, including regular tablets, chewable tablets, capsules, and liquid, for oral consumption. Typically, it’s taken four times daily – after meals and before bedtime. Precisely adhere to the instructions provided on the packaging or your prescription label.

Follow the prescribed directions for simethicone usage meticulously. Do not deviate by taking more or less than prescribed, or by altering the frequency, without the guidance of your doctor.

When ingesting regular tablets and capsules, swallow them whole. Chewable tablets, however, should be thoroughly chewed before swallowing; avoid swallowing them whole. Unless directed otherwise by your doctor, refrain from consuming more than six simethicone tablets or eight simethicone capsules per day. The liquid variant can be mixed with 1 ounce (30 milliliters) of cool water or infant formula.

Side Effects

When taken as directed, simethicone usually has no side effects.
