Uses:
Flatulence (gas/wind)
Medicinal Benefits:
Flatease Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called anti-flatulent agents used to treat symptoms of flatulence (gas/wind), such as painful or uncomfortable pressure, bloating, and fullness. It is sometimes prescribed to people with irritable bowel syndrome to ease the symptoms. Flatease Capsule is also used as a diagnostic aid to facilitate the removal of gas from the stomach and intestine prior to gastroscopy, sonography of the abdominal organs and spine, and x-ray examination. Flatease Capsule works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract. Flatease Capsule may also help with wind, bloating, and colic pain in children.
