About Gasphar-XT Sugar Free Mint Suspension 150 ml

Gasphar-XT Sugar Free Mint Suspension 150 ml belongs to the class of 'gastrointestinal agents,' primarily used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease, heartburn, and acidity. It helps relieve symptoms of indigestion and gastrointestinal distress. Indigestion is the inability to digest food that is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Gasphar-XT Sugar Free Mint Suspension 150 ml contains Calcium carbonate, Sodium alginate, and Sodium bicarbonate. Calcium carbonate is an antacid that works by decreasing the amount of acid in the stomach. Sodium alginate forms a viscous gel by reacting with stomach acid.

Sodium bicarbonate is also an antacid and has alkaline pH, which helps in neutralising the acidic pH in the stomach.
