Description
Magaldrate+Simethicone Syrup belongs to the category of anti-ulcerates and antacids that are used in the treatment of gas, acidity, heartburn, indigestion, and bloating. The mucous layer present in the stomach helps to prevent acidity. This layer can get destroyed when the acid in the stomach is produced in excess amounts.
