Dioval Forte Tablet

Question 1

How does Dioval Forte Tablet work?

Accepted Answer

Dioval Forte Tablet is a combination of three drugs: Aluminium hydroxide (antacid), magnesium hydroxide (antacid) and dimethicone (antiflatulent). Aluminium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide works by neutralising excess stomach acid.
